The sun is peaking out and it just occurred to me… SWARM SEASON! No, it’s not swarm season now, but those little bees are starting to think about it. Last year I had two established bee boxes in my backyard, so when swarm season hit… it hit hard. I had no less than twelve swarms land in my yard and the three yards next to me. One of my neighbor’s was not too thrilled, but the others found it fascinating. Last year I moved the two colonies I had to my partner in crime’s house, so the building contractors could rebuild the section of house burned by the mysterious house fire we had. I am really curious to see if we get any swarms in the yard without the two colonies there. I put out the bait boxes last year around the end of February, and I will do that again this year. It’s just like a second Christmas for me.

by Tobias Roote

FREE for a limited time
In the year 2020, a landslide awakens the AI of an alien Escape Pod which had crashed and sunk into a prehistoric swamp. Now it must utilize ancient patterning technology to reconstitute its Master. However, it proves no easy mission as it scours this strange new world for essential materials to rebuild.
As a homeless man, Zeke has worked hard to claim a back-alley as his own territory where a restaurant’s staff leave him food scraps. As if things aren’t bad enough Zeke’s on a dark government watchlist. He has a partial metal skull, forged from a meteorite and hammered into shape by a Middle-Eastern Blacksmith. The strange alloy has irreversibly bonded with his brain and is leaking into his DNA, changing it.
When the newly-revived Master discovers that the only source of an essential component for its ship is the foreign material in Zeke’s head, it faces a difficult moral dilemma. The Master comes from a race that reveres all biological life wherever it is found, and Zeke will die if the metal cap is removed.
It’s left to the AI to find another way?
