Young Gary Brackett had no higher ambition than to run the New Mexico family farm as well as he possibly could. He would care for his mother and sister for as long as they needed him, and at some future time, if he met the right girl, he expected to marry and have a family. He had not thought much beyond that. Not until that day, his 21st birthday, when his mother had handed him the envelope containing the letter from his dead father. That was to change everything.

Young Gary Brackett had no higher ambition than to run the New Mexico family farm as well as he possibly could. He would care for his mother and sister for as long as they needed him, and at some future time, if he met the right girl, he expected to marry and have a family. He had not thought much beyond that. Not until that day, his 21st birthday, when his mother had handed him the envelope containing the letter from his dead father. That was to change everything. The Alafarians is the story of how Gary's life was changed as a result of events set in motion on that day. Parallel events were taking place on the Earth and neighboring planets at he same time, all to come together in an unexpected climax, 300 years in Gary's future. Many years later Gary Brackett's descendant, Alexander Hayden, made his own discovery of ancient technology, namely time travel. Time Out is the story of those happenings. The events that spun off from that, as well as Alex's meeting his life partner, Anna, make up a story set in more relatively placid times. There is still travel between distant planets, a peril thwarted, and the introduction of an alien race, to keep that story interesting. Alex and Anna raised a large family. Their great grandson Robert O'Brien made a discovery of his own in the form of a sealed canister left by a scientist of the Ancient Sharian race. His world was ending due to global cooling. He had been developing real time, long range communication, when he grew old and died. Fortunately he had saved his work for future generations. All that was left for Robert to do was to grow up, learn how to decipher the ancient writings, and adapt it for use by the present generations. Robert with the help of his wife Martha, was able to pull together bits and pieces of several ancient technologies, and put the whole thing together to form a Communication Breakthrough.
