Five Moons: Entangled

“Evil men conspired to have a starship destroyed, to disappear its crew forever. But the Anoza chose me to save the Five Moons. I didn’t know any of that when I bought a ship that was never meant for sale. I didn’t know when I first stepped foot upon its decks that I changed everything … But I know it now. And save Five Moons? Damned straight I will.” “I am Dallas Blake, outworlder to the nines. By the end of the war, I had lost everything. I bought the ship to start over. And you know that crew they thought was lost and gone forever? Well, think again. The crew and I go wherever we are needed. Making a difference starts with us.” “Mankind was cast into the outer darkness because of the evil in our hearts. So I have my work cut out for me. How about you? Would you like to make a difference? But I have to warn you: The action never stops for the crew of the Five Moons.”

About the Author

This is a true story...I got into a discussion with my nephew.  He is such a fine, good lookin' young man.  I should call him Face.  Can you dig it?  I knew that you could.  Anyway, Face says to me, "Uncle Bill you say that a lot." After I thought about it some, I wrote this.  Face, this is for you....I was thinking back to a time long ago... 1975... and I was watching Saturday Night Live.  Can you dig it?  I knew that you could.  And Billy Crystal was doing a skit 'bout going to a little club in the Village to see an ole friend, an ole jazzman.  He went backstage after they finished their first set.  An' you know, the years had been hard on the jazzman but he was still giggin'.  Can you dig it?  He was still giggin' after all those years.  In fact, he told Billy that he didn't have any teeth for a while, oh yeah, but even so, he was still out there giggin'.  Can you dig it?  I knew that you could.  The house was empty but, oh yeah, you know... that ole jazzman was gonna go out and do that second set anyway.  Can you dig it?  That ole jazzman still had a fire in his soul for the music after all those years.  Can you dig it?  I knew that you could.I guess you had to be there, you know, an' see it for yourself.An' it got me thinking, oh yeah.  You know I am not so young anymore, for sure.  An' just as sure the years have been hard on me.  I may have all my teeth, but parts of me don't work so good no more.  Can you dig it?  I knew that you could.  Even so, this ole wordman has never lost the faith.  Hell, I just started another novel.  After all these years, I still have a fire in my soul for the words.  Can you dig it?  I am that jazzman.  I mean, can you dig it... me.  I knew that you could..Bill Parker  Copyright © 2016 All rights reserved.
