About this listen
Plagued with problems from the start, Ricky begins investigating the source of the problems and discovers their ship has been deliberately sabotaged in an attempt to prevent them from being the first settlers on their new home, therefore preventing them from setting up the form of government the settlers want to live under.
Even after he repairs the ship to the point it will be able to successfully make the trip, they find themselves dodging warships that are apparently crewed by pirates.
Waring: This book may contain political and social commentary the close-minded may find objectionable.

Story
Al has completed loading the maximum quota of milled grain on the royal caravan.

Now the king wants him to increase their annual production of grain as much as they can. The still to young Master Miller has to work with the farmers to figure out how to give them more acres to farm. More grain means he needs more mill capacity, which will force him to build a new higher capacity mill. On top of all that, the king has made Al the ...

Story
Daniel Rice is a government science investigator whose specialty is solving seemingly intractable problems through scientific inquiry. But Daniel's intellectual strength is sorely tested by the bizarre realities he finds in the quantum world. Extra dimensions of space trap the unwary, probability replaces cause and effect, and time isn't what anyone imagined. The other side of the mirror is a place full of dangers, but it's also somewhere a dedicated scientist can uncover secrets that connect humans with something greater.
