Отрывок из книги
I would like to dedicate this book to all the great authors who wrote in the science fiction genre who inspired my imagination eventually inspiring me to write. I have had these ideas since a young boy watching the Apollo launches as well as watching science fiction programs in the late sixties and early seventies. More recently, I found some time to write. I would also like to dedicate this to my friends and family who helped with some ideas and concepts back when we were younger. To Robert, Brian, Mark, and David for each of their helpful creative contributions to the story. I would like to thank Basil for his helping create several of the main characters and with helping write chapters two and three and reviewing some sections of drafts of the final chapters. Also thanks Basil for the inspiring science fiction artwork on the characters and all the starship drawings. Lastly to my parents Martin and Merri who inspired me to learn.
The duty uniform of the Alliance of Worlds was unisex and designed so that each section’s uniform jacket was designated by a different color scheme. White represented line officers and Command; blue was for the Sciences section; green was designated for the Medical division; red was for the Engineering & Maintenance section, and golden yellow for Operations, the general operation of the starship.

“Sir, you said androids, but wouldn’t our scanners detect them?” asked Admiral Girok.
“Normally, yes, with ordinary androids,” replied Garfield. “However, these andro-synths are equipped with significantly advanced technology, and have defenses against detection. The one I showed you on my presentation will likely lead me to the others like it. It is being observed now by my operatives. These andro-synths have a sensor filter and sensor pattern shrouding unit, which allows them to mask scans and pass for a variety of individuals. This technology is even more sophisticated than what the Varlon have; these andro-synths posses Jiyarri subsystems. When I discovered this, I contacted the ambassadors that the Jiyarr have at my home world and the ambassador at one of the Betellian world spheres. Both denied knowledge of this. I have known both for over a century, and they have been honorable to their word.”
