Here’s what the reviewer has to say: Great concept, well executed I first stumbled across the “Ascension Epoch” universe while […]
Free Spirits is a short story (about 28 pages) set in the mid-2000s of the Grapple Gun Universe (GGU). If you’ve been following along in the series that began with Archers and whose most recent installment is The Eye of Horus, this is 30+ years in the future from the characters and events you’re familiar […]
