Marathon
When I wrote this, I was still unsure how to refer to Captain Star Runner. “They” was not as ubiquitous as it now is. “It” didn’t sound right either so I defaulted to “he” while Ronnie refer to Star as “she”. That’s all really awkward.
I am placing the novel here and it is basically as I wrote it, warts and all.
Note: the western spiral arm will become Hesperian Arm and Sanctuary and other novels not in this part of the arm will become the Rainbow Marches.
