About the Book

In Challenges, newly promoted Captain Random Arthur Hause, a former history teacher/baseball coach, finds himself at the center of the explosion as events on Echo World spin out of control. He and his new partner, Miss Eileen Sands find themselves the leaders of the rebellious Off-world forces in a fight for independence. Random and Eileen soon discover that dancing, as a marionette is preferable to dying. As Random and Eileen engage, along with the rest of the human community, in another unwanted war, they add a new collection of friends, including Colonel Richard Schoenfeldt and Andrew "Ike" Eicherman. Through the help of Schoenfeldt and Eicherman, Random and Eileen Random and Eileen are able to find the manpower and resources to defend their newly created Savannah Protectorate. The price for failure is obvious. What isn't so obvious is; What are they going to do if they succeed? M. A. Roberts uses a combination of history, technology, and a dose of 'what if' to create an interesting and believable alternative future. Lisa Corson created the beautiful cover art for Challenges. You can see more of Lisa's creations at Homespun Heritage.
About the Author: M. A. Roberts has taught social studies and literature for twenty-five years. He began writing in high school and then put it away to do other things. His series, Chinavare's Find began as a character sketch in a creative writing class in the early 90's, and gradually grew. In 2008, M. A. Roberts began assembling the various pieces of the series, finally publishing Opportunity Calls, the first title in the series in 2012. The second and third titles in the series, Challenges and Distant Horizons followed soon after. M. A. Roberts also enjoys politics, running as the Green Party's candidate for the U. S. House of Representatives in Texas's Second District, and he plans on doing so again in 2014.
