Ten Thousand Meals - Part II - 20 Years of New Earth - Paperback

by Philip Buckley (Author)

No water, no dirt, no food. Nothing but unbearable heat in the day replaced with freezing cold in the evening. That, and a water transformer that wouldn't work. Welcome to New Earth, the planet that is the safe haven for those who managed to arrive from Earth on Space Station 222, or SS 222 as it was known. They had considered themselves lucky to escape Earth when surface temperatures rose to over two hundred degrees. But luck won't help the new arrivals to Planet P32265 if they can't figure out how to manage the weather, grow food, or create a functioning government. With the often tenous leadership of Captain Majewski and Gordon and Terri Johnson, these modern day pioneers must find a way to keep their fragile society together. If they don't, death is the only other option. Show more Show less

Author Biography

Leaving a movie several years ago, I told my wife I could write stories just as good as the ones we paid to see. She said, "Well then, why don't you?" That was the beginning of my writing career. Since then I've written several books and novellas, focusing mostly on horror and science fiction, other areas as well. I don't try to write a certain book, or kind of book. Instead I put the stories bouncing around in my head onto paper (or Microsoft Word if you will). How'm I doing? As the great 20th Century poet Mick Jagger said, "You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometime, you might just find, you get what you need." I'm looking to do better than that.
