I've been reading sci-fi for decades. It's delightful to find a new voice and one that is so warm and positive. It takes me back to the hopeful stories of the 60's and 70's. Thank you, Robert Butler and SciFi stories for sharing in an affordable way.

The insightful analysis of the perversion of the legal system by vindictive privilege, bought with victims' lives, should be required reading for anyone seeking public office or any position of authority. I hope to see at least the beginnings of the long overdue reforms to police and privilege in my lifetime. The portrayal of the resilience, determination, endurance, cohesion of the family unit gives hope that we may someday see past differences and focus on similarities, across the self-imposed divides of country/ethnicity/religion.
