SOL
Beached Whales
Still Dawn
A thousand years in the future Kili Centerrial travels to the mountains in search of a legendary city. What he finds instead is a population of strange creatures that seem very intelligent yet quite primitive. While humanoid, they differ in significant ways from humans, both in appearance, nature, and how they communicate. Most surprising is Kili’s discovery of another man who lives among these strange creatures, who seems somehow related to their existence. His name is Christopher Larkin.
Christopher relates his quest for the Secret of Life, and through stories of the past, slowly reveals what he means by this. The secret is closely related to the existence of the Sol—the name of the strange creatures—and in the end, to the meaning of human existence.

Steppes to Empyrea takes place at the top the World Trade Center during the week prior to 9/11. There they interrogate a former nuclear weapons specialist seeking the whereabouts of a missing nuclear warhead. The questioning reveals something stranger - and more sinister - than missing nuclear weapons: a future tightly linked to the present, one that includes the threat of human extinction. The enigmatic phrase 'Flashdance Nevermore' seems to be key.
