    "This thoughtful and engaging collection of essays captures the astute fans' history of the franchise, going beyond well-worn narratives of yesteryear to uncover the less-discussed moments, decisions, people, and settings that fostered the Braves' one-of-a-kind identity. Through wheeling and dealing, mythmaking and community building, explore where the organization has been, how it got to prominence in the modern major league landscape, and how it'll continue to evolve and stay in contention for generations to come"--

    Dave Allenson, a gruff security guard, is no fan of football, but he takes his job seriously.

Through the eyes of various players, associates, and others over the course of twenty years, this book traces the course of "what if".What would Australian football and the National Soccer League have looked like if things were different?

    Humanity is on the move. A sphere of Verity Space is consuming the Earth at an inexorable creep. A single city resists, slowing the advance in a seemingly hopeless war of attrition. Refugees pour into the Yakini's caravan of misfit buildings as Jose, Nomia and their band of Nodes wrestle against inevitable destruction. Bergur & Sera travel to a Mars seeking fresh supplies of a bio-weapon inexplicably effective against the Eidolons. Reeling after their own brush with annihilation, the Martians are more interested in internal squabbles than in helping their former overlords on Earth. Mex and Julienne, drawn together by their differences, are wrestling to share a single mind, even as they battle to thwart the death throes of a corporate paradigm. All the characters of the Verity Trilogy come together in Certitude; humanity's ultimate struggle against erasure from reality. Some will flourish, while others will make the ultimate sacrifice.

    Book Two of The Verity Trilogy. While hiding on Mars, Nomia embarks on an audacious plan to free her brothers and sisters from the organic computer of the Nexus, and cripple MynCorp's hold over humanity. To succeed she will need to forge an alliance with the deeply compromised Martian independence movement. The Nexus has disturbed a presence in Verity Space even more insidious than MynCorp machinations. Determined to draw MynCorp into the fray, Mex infiltrates the heart of the corporate behemoth, but unwittingly uncovers a sickening truth. Julienne would give anything to restore her ordered life. Anything except the total cleansing demanded by MyncCorp. On the run, she takes refuge amongst the disenfranchised, scraping an existence in a senile building. Even here, her life is inexorably entwined with Mex's. Drawn and appalled by her emotions, she must decide how far she will go to save him.

Now alien races, rebel consciences, idealist spirits and enslaved souls must find a co-operative path, and convince MynCorp to save human existence. Along the way attraction, rebellion, violence, love and greed bond and repel the main characters.
