    Connor G. Madison

    Connor was raised on the southwest side of Chicago. His parents lived the American dream, a nice house on a nice street back when people treated each other decently. Back when children could play outside without fear. Connor grew up reading everything, fiction, non-fiction, science fiction, everything. As he grew up, he found he loved science. He also loved science fiction, all the greats of past decades. Heinlein, Reynolds, Dickson, Drake, Azimov were his champions of his youth on into adult life. Today, Connor writes science fiction for his own amusement. Yet he wondered if people would like to read what he writes. So he is delving into the eBook arena with a few of his musings. So have fun reading, he had fun write them.

      The Battle for Rigel

      Chapter 1

      For three days, wave after wave of Gar ships came. Then what was left of their dreadnaughts moved into the system. Three around Rigel VI and three around Rigel V. All of them dwarfed all ships around them. Plasma bolts of enormous power lashed out from the huge ships. Five Warrior class ships moved in on the Gar dreadnaughts, shields glowing from the bolts of plasma.

      All five Federation ships fired at the same time. Four massive plasma streams from each ship. Hundreds of torpedo tracks flashed toward the first Gar dreadnought. Its shields held for an instant. Then it imploded, along its surface, gaping holes left where structure once stood. The monster ship was being eaten by an invisible beast. Plasma bolts cut and seared the structure still there.

      Then it was gone, debris littered the airless space that was once a giant ship of destruction. The five Warrior class ships now turned their attention to the next huge ship around Rigel V. Yellow and blue plasma bolts flashed between the smaller ships to lick the shields of the larger ship. Torpedoes left over from the first ship were redirected to the next. Holes appeared in the hull of the craft now before the Federation ships. Plasma bolt after plasma bolt lashed out from the huge Gar ship. Each ship struck, shook off the force of the bolts and moved toward the Gar dreadnaught.

      Then the second Gar ship was disappearing as if some monster was eating it from the inside out. The huge ship went dark and still, the monster ate. Then there was no more ship. The five ships of the Federation moved toward the next Gar giant. The single remaining dreadnaught disappeared into hyperspace. Their smaller brothers still able to joined them.

      As the five Federation ships turned toward Rigel VI,
