The Captain's Propensity : The Andromeda Incident II

The sci-fi fantasy novel The Captain's Propensity tells the amazing story of the sometimes buffoonish, former United League of Planets Captain Robert Michael Calyx and his adventures -and misadventures - in the fortieth century. This once venerable but now decommissioned captain is presumably just along for the ride aboard the Starship Americus III, a newly upgraded, powerful, and swift tachyon-driven starship that's capable of traveling one thousand times the speed of light. Americus III is on its maiden voyage to the planetary system of Rigel, a most bewildering star located in the constellation Orion. The trip will take the starship 860 light years from the United League of Planets' humongous Star-Station, Earth II, which asynchronously orbits high above the extremely polluted and dying planet Earth. Holy Jeranian Cow! Find out what's in store for the captain, the extraterrestrial beings he meets, and more importantly, for planet Earth in this mixed-up tale of adventure and wittiness.
