Reach Beyond The Stars

Brilliant and headstrong Anna Jean (A.J.) Summers is a premiere scientist and pilot in the Earth Alliance Forces. Rebelling against a society that says her only value is her ability to produce children, A.J. has designed a ship that the Alliance believes to be Earth's last hope against an alien race they call the Enemy. Not much is known about the Enemy, since no one captured has ever survived to talk about them. It is enough to know that the Enemy's only goal is to destroy Earth and her colonies. Believing that her presence is crucial in her ship's journey to find a way to the defeat the Enemy, A.J. fights to be included in this mission. The Alliance's ruling council has other ideas. They see A.J. as too valuable an asset to risk losing, so they ban her from participating in this mission. Convinced the mission cannot succeed without her, A.J. steals the ship and activates its amazing property - to travel back in time. Following a hint that the Enemy might have visited Earth at some point in the past, A. J. flees back in time to try and find even a hint of who the Enemy is and how they might be defeated. Join A.J. on her journey in Reach Beyond the Stars, the first book in the "Stars End" series.
