Chandera (Book 1)

Lost on an unknown planet, the Riven 5 survivors find themselves in the midst of a battle of good against evil!

In the year 2342, most of the Milky Way Galaxy has been charted and colonized. Maxwell Wilkes, a young Native American man, is traveling from a distant mining planet on the Eastern Rim, where he's been living with his girlfriend, Alexandra Parks.

On the way to Earth, their shuttle is attacked and the warp unit disrupted. The ship jumps into a planetary system within an unknown galaxy. The Riven 5 crash lands, with devastating results. The survivors find themselves in the medieval Kingdom of Densmere. Seen as Strangers from the Stars, the peoples of this fairytale world welcome Max, Alex, and their companions.

While examining the wreckage, the crew discovers that there is no fuel to power the warp jump to make the trip home. But, the answer may lie with a magic rock, whose pieces are scattered and protected by a Dark Lord whose armies are at war with Densmere. Finding the rock may be the crew's only hope of returning home and tipping the balance in the war that can save this world called Chandera.
