What if the laws of probability were no longer a factor and the\\nmost improbable and nigh unthinkable things began to happen? This\\nis exactly what the crew of the Sagittarius runs into in\\nthe latest Seekers novel and the solution may just cost\\nthem more than they bargained for.

We talk about it\\u2019s\\ncreation, being villainless, illustrating the Prime Directive,\\nscientific research, crew interactions, personal connections, life\\nto the fullest, what\\u2019s next for David and where to find him\\nonline.

\\n
