It’s the late twenty-third century in a universe where social morality and the lines of right and wrong are mixed and muddied. Over-population and dwindling resources have forced the people out into the stars; known space is now split into three tiers. The government has reverted back to feudalism and isn’t necessarily good and not all crimes committed are done with criminal intent.
Life is anything but easy in the black and some have been forced into lives they didn’t necessarily want in order to survive. This journal is about the extraordinary lives and harrowing exploits of Phoenix Enclave’s captain, Iain Bryce, the “Robin Hood” pirate, his crew and their admittedly criminal activities as they try to stay true to their ideals and the cause of helping the less fortunate while trying to keep from getting captured by the Confederational Regime Forces.

Please advise. I am the authors of a new work, The Dominium, which has been contraversal since the moment it became public a month ago. Whether it is science fiction or science fact is an open question that even I cannot conclusively answer. The ultimate classification of this work is yet to be determined, though it is officially registered under both designations with the official ISBN agency.
The debate concerning the science of this new book has been raging on my Scientific American community blog since it began on Dec 14th { http://science-community.sciam.com/forum.jspa?forumID=300005039 }. Though detractors immediately began to attack this new theory (even before they had read any of it) instead of finding flaws with the new work, they ended up supplying evidence that had not been included in the first edition. A week after debate began on Scientific American, I posted links to access a free download of the abridged half-version of the book. Within 24hrs, the SciAm blogs were offline. If anyone tried to access any of the different blogs a message appeared: “System error – file missing.” On Dec 26th, the blogs had been repaired and I posted an article outlining why malicious cyber-attack was likely. The motive: to silence a discussion that the establishment was losing. More articles followed, as did unsuccessful attempts to find fault with the new model. On Jan 2nd and 3rd, the site that housed the free download was hacked into, the free version was deleted, and porn was posted throughout the vandalized site. In terms of science fiction, this book is packed with all the materials of a thriller: pending apocalypse, a scientific establishment blinded by greed and lust, and Biblical omens. Terrifyingly, if this new model is correct, then the doomsday sequence projected would parallel biblical descriptions of the End: fire, brimstone, being dragged down to Hell. Please advise: How can I best get this "out there?" |
