What happened on Eros? The year is 2027 and mankind has gallantly stepped out into the solar system to establish the first Asteroid Mining Operation Station (AMOS) on the Near Earth Object, 433 Eros However, the enterprising space venture comes to an industry-wrecking halt when the station begins experiencing enigmatic bouts of interference in communications with Earth. Worse yet, the worsening interference seems to be regularly occurring cycles. The promise of despair only thickens when a recovery contingent is dispatched in a desperate attempt to bring the AMOS back on-line. Instead of restoring hope, they are met with a very unlikely fate that leaves the awestruck corporation with only more questions and very impatient investors. Something has to be done, and quick. Something more daring and dynamic than anything ever undertaken before... Send in the Aerotroopers! Frank Briar and Aerotrooper in the elite Aerospace Security Division of the world renown megacorporation, Central Solutions. When he and a small detachment of Aerotroppers are selected to assist in the troubleshooting of the second AMOs recovery mission, after surviving a life devoted to the trade of warfare and being deployed with a team of equally skilled warriors, Briar is certain his team will achieve a decisive victory. That certainty, as well as their very lives, is challenged when they are faced with a particularly unconventional kind of warfare. As the shadows close in around them, Briar has to face his darkest enemy of all...himself.

He plans to live in Green River Wyoming wih his Dad upon release from confinement. As of the original printing of INTERFERENCE CYCLE (2014), L.D. Blocker currently resides in a long-term are facility for the 'legally challenged' (a.k.a. the United States Disciplinary Barracks in Fort Leavenworth, Kansas) He has no internet access limitation.
