About The Author
Have an AI run the world?
What could go wrong?
DARPA’s AI, built and programmed to “fulfill humanity’s highest values” has made a decision. The problem with Earth is the humans …
Two centuries later, and the DARPA AI has multiplied into an android race, and spread throughout the solar system and beyond. When faced with a mutant AI race bent on consuming everything around them, the DARPA AIs search through history hoping to find a way to stop them. They stumble upon the long forgotten knowledge of the electronic copy of Ezekiel’s brain. AI Ezekiel has human emotions—the very thing the DARPA AIs lack to survive the coming fight.
Though the DARPA AIs reactivated Ezekiel to help them win the war, his humanistic contribution to this artificial intelligent race will reach well beyond this universe.

Brace yourself for an electrifying saga of moral quandaries, superhuman species, and interstellar battles that will ignite your imagination!
Ezekiel, an android with a copy of a human brain, has emotions and a sense of humor that make him unique among the AI crew members of the starship, Delphi. His fellow AIs are strictly logical and follow rigid rules that prevent them using their extraordinary powers to interfere with or harm other races. Those rules are tested on Trappist-1, a star system shackled by oppression and injustice. The Delphi’s newest crew member, a compassionate human empath, urges them to violate their rules and aid the oppressed population. Ezekiel agonizes over the dilemma. When a fleet of predatory aliens arrives to plunder the planets’ resources, he and the crew must choose—stay and fight or follow their Prime Directive and leave.

Life for the Santiago family
is about to turn lethal.
Young women are disappearing without a trace. An attempt to take Dani’s friend, and then her, tells Kalen his enemies are getting bolder and desperate.
While recovering from an attempt on his own life, Kalen and Jamie Santiago stumble onto another kidnapping. They interfere and set off a series of disastrous events that put the Santiago family in harm’s way.
The MacKenna Saga is a great series. Each book gets better as more secrets are revealed and Russell MacKenna’s (Kalen’s father) life comes to light. Mr. Draude’s stories are full of twists and turns and make this series a must read. I look forward to the next book in the series.
