Moros

What is reality? What is truth? Can one simultaneously be an Americana Alliance commanding officer fighting enemies on the Outer Rim in 2267 and an insecure college student just trying not to miss out on his peers' festivities in 2014?

For Lieutenant Timothy "Tim" Bortman, his current reality of whizzing bullets and the inevitable misting blood that follows is hard to deny. But even as he cautiously approaches enemy positions-looking out for murderous foes and lethal, otherworldly fauna alike-he can't silence the persistent and vivid memories of a life where his most pressing issue was trying to make it to class on time on a cool midwestern fall day.

While Earth may finally be at peace, the stars remain a treacherous quagmire, mired by unfettered human nature and scientific machinations thought to have never seen the light of day. For Tim, deciphering facts from fiction is a matter of life and death, and no matter what he chooses to believe, the only way he can hope to find a home again is to figure out who is pulling the strings.
