Well Done. Just finished Ken Pence ‘Connections’ and like his other stories found it fast-paced and an easy read without a lot of fluff and feathers. The characters are interesting and the story makes you care what happens to them. No spoiler here, but I did like the twist as I never saw it coming. Overall, this is a great adventure story, fast-moving with interesting tech about man’s first venture into deep space. There is also the question of what might happen when we meet aliens, some more interesting than others on a more intimate level. As an aside, not being any sort of an editor myself, I skipped over the errors I found and concentrated on the storytelling. Ken Pence did another excellent job of portraying men, good and bad, and how greed can motivate them to do their worst. Lastly, this is a story well worth reading."
