Surveyor: Book 1 in the Corps of Discovery Series

JOIN THE CORPS AND EXPLORE NEW PLANETS. EXPERIENCE ADVENTURE IN FARAWAY LANDS

ADVENTURE (ad-ven-ture/adˈven(t)SHər): an exciting and typically hazardous experience; someone else in danger in a faraway land.

On worlds where humans never evolved, one organization exists for the sole purpose of exploration - the Corps of Discovery. Using technology to open gateways to parallel Earths, the Corps sends teams out to explore alternate timelines for settlement by Earth's burgeoning population. Not everyone wants to see new worlds explored, though. The Gaia Liberation Front, a shadowy terrorist organization is bent on stopping humans from expanding into "unsullied worlds."

Bill Clark joins the Corps for adventure, independence from Earth's ever-growing security state, and to explore new planets. He soon finds himself exploring new worlds with Meri Lewis, daughter of the Corps' Commandant. Unaware of the GLF's plans to shut down the gates, Bill and Meri soon learn that adventure means someone else in danger in a faraway land, and they're definitely on an adventure.
