Dragon Invasion: Mystics, Dragons, & Spaceships

Dragons don't exist. Except on the Astral Plane where humans aren't welcome.When humanity built spaceships and headed to the stars, they found the dragons waiting. Some places they'll let humans go. Others they won't.And sometimes humanity refuses to be denied. That's where the Mystics come in. They commune with the Astral Plane. They deal with the dragons. They suffer the dragon's fury. And sometimes they bend the dragons to their will.Very few have the gift of seeing the Astral Plane. Their innate talents are nurtured in the Mystic Academy while Earth Fleet has its own academy where they train the best and brightest for careers in space. The fleet has to work within the laws of physics. And they have to work with the Mystics, too, even though they don't understand them.Because they don't believe that Dragons are real. I'm retired from the Marine Corps, spending time both as enlisted and as an officer. Then I went to law school, took my law degree into business consulting where I became a business diagnostics specialist and leadership coach. I retired from that at age 52 because I was away from home way too much. That's when I started writing full time, and I have not looked back since. This is a great ride! I have a variety of stories now since I've been at this for a little while, lots of short stories so you can see if you like my style. I have a number of best selling novels in categories that matter to me - space opera, military scifi, Space Marine, colonization, and genetic engineering. As a serial daydreamer, it's nice to finally get the stories on paper (virtual and digital paper, that is).Visit my web page, craigmartelle.com for the latest posts and updates or find me on Facebook, Author Craig Martelle.
