Taking the Andy Weir route for folks looking at my book.

Hi,

Welcome to my Science Fiction story, "Gladiators of Internium: The Realm of Stolen Memories.”

I started running this story several years ago and have done my best to write it at an understandable level. There may be sections that need more work and attention to flush out details and story points, but this is why I am doing this Andy Weir review style.

Let me know if you see anything that needs to be corrected so I can revise it. This is a family drama, mystery, and science fiction novel with swordplay. But I have done my best to make it easy to read. This was the type of book I wanted to write in my teens as I was power-diving my way into the works of Robert Heinlein, Frank Herbert, and Edgar Rice Burroughs.

These stories occur on an extraterrestrial superstructure inhabited by ex-Roman gladiators, Roman citizens, ancient Chinese, and an alien race known as the Squall. All of them were resurrected from the dead after many centuries. It has been a generation since a renegade explorer returned to this place with these primitive humans. A mystery has started to surface in that many of the humans resurrected via the Squall have had sections of their memories stolen. When the Ancient Gladiator General Spartacus, a friend of the Squall explorer Libra, turns up, this mystery hits home. As the search to discover what happened to Spartacus's memory unfolds, a larger conspiracy starts to reveal itself and may connect to the events that led to the peace that the Squall and the humans now share.

Please let me know what you think of the story by responding to my Facebook or other social media pages. -----

I have been working on the third book of my Gladiators of Internium series. Mostly I have been doing a rough setup of several scenes where the plot is going connect to.

Additionally I have been doing work on my Beta corrections and making up the packets to send out to potential publishers.

So this is me just giving an update on what I have been doing.

I plan to update soon.
