    About this ebook

    Alien girl vs Pirates ...

    As if hunting down her enemies to protect this savage Earth from the tyrant empire of the niiaH wasn't hard enough!

    Tiana and her partners on La Valishniña venture to Europe during a war with the Barbary Coast Pirates...

    Because the readers demanded more....

    Praise for the Symbiont Wars Series:
    5 Stars! What a great find! "Avatar" and "Master and Commander" combined into one.

    5 Stars! First Contact Like No Other! I could not believe how great this book is! I picked it because of the tail but it turned out that that wasn't the best part of the story.

    5 Stars! Spellbinding! I loved part 1 and part 2 was even better. More wonderful characters, people you get to know and care about. Thrilling action and heart wrenching drama. Can't wait to get the next one!

    Portal of Choice is a 12,500 word novelette that follows close behind Book 1 of the Symbiont Wars Series.

    Chogan Swan

    Chogan Swan is a subversive, wild-eyed, non-violent neoRevolutionary who lives in the country of the mind in the world of thoughts in the universe of ideas. In this tiny corner of the space-time continuum, Chogan studied Philosophy and later collected graduate degrees in Business and Systems Engineering from a major US university renowned for its abundant alcohol consumption and passion for a particularly barbaric blood-sport. Go Hokies! :) These studies, however, led to an interest in Systems Thinking and how to work together to save the world for everyone. It won't be easy. (But then what is that's worth having?) Philosopher, poet, prophet, revolutionary--sentients in various realities have used these words to describe Chogan. Of course, the truth is in the interstices. The motivating force for Chogan's ... 'messages in bottles' to the multiverse ... has been succinctly captured by the words of Harlan Ellison … "Writing is a holy chore. ... the only organism of quiet communication left to us. In the soft moments when we huddle alone with our thoughts, we turn to words ... And there--in the moment when (sentient beings) choose to reason--we can reach them. It is a heavy responsibility."

      Jun 3, 2021

      AN ISLAND provides refuge for refugees. Their roofs, tablecloths, and bedsheets wave from the port’s breeze. Temporarily permanent, adjacent to the water, each tent kneels behind the mayor’s office and in front of a tenth-century castle. The locals p
