There is a super subtle change to this document since it was mailed because the word I wanted as a short term for what the spies want to call the Goeken Space Association as a combo of Goeken and goon turns out to be a super derogatory term for real. So, I changed that. I may have been born in the era the derogatory term was used, but I've encountered it so little that it was not on my radar until a friend noted it.
I'm not normally a reader of science fiction, but I enjoyed this! As we encounter more advanced technology in our own lives, it's always refreshing to encounter fiction that addresses it from a Christian perspective.
The fun of revamping this story is that half of it was written before I accepted Christ and half was after. On that front there is not much to revamp even in the early part. What really needs work is that I have way more training and experience that has to be applied to this 20+ old story. Some parts proved they required less, but I had to change up the start.
Also, most of my sci-fi will feel more like space operas or sci-fantasy. I have advanced biotech in here - some not as farfetched as it was when I wrote the draft - but don't go into hard details on it. It's about the impact on humanity that I aim for in my stories.
Thank you. Let me know what you think. It's a work for fun that will get some deep editing, but not by professional eyes. If you see something reading it, let me know.
