Book Two: Tempel Dugan leads a company of Lunarian warriors against impossible odds. They call themselves Quan Kiai. These young warriors, and a few more like them, are all that stands between the Republic of Luna and total annihilation.

Bad Day is a story of violence and brutality, of sudden frontier justice, of courage and enduring love. The story takes place in the Arizona Territory at a time when the only law enforcement outside the capital city of Prescott was a few men wearing a star. When one of them goes bad, all hell breaks loose.

Republic of Luna - Putting the Science in Science Fiction

The world consumed 20.1 trillion kilowatt hours of energy in 2010, up over 3% from the year before. Of this, 13.9 trillion kw-hrs comes from hydrocarbons, 2.6 trillion from nuclear, and 3.1 trillion from hydroelectric. Earth-bound renewables hardly make a dent. The EIA predicts world net electrical consumption will increase to 25.5 trillion kw-hrs by 2020 and 35.2 trillion kw-hrs by 2035. Even if you don’t fully understand the enormity of the numbers, just remember that we are using more energy today than we did yesterday, by a lot. I repeat, where will we get our electricity when the oil and coal are gone?There is only one power source capable of meeting humanities energy needs and all future demands, the SUN, and the best place to harness its power is collecting sunlight in SPACE.

Everything in your world depends on electricity either directly or indirectly. The food you eat, the water you drink, the car you drive, are all possible because of electricity. This cannot be overstated. Electricity is civilization.

Frontier Justice
   Lying awake on the floor, Tom cried out and made a weak play for his Winchester. He was stopped abruptly by the butt of Kingsley’s heavy shotgun. Tom slumped back, dazed and bleeding. Kingsley relieved Tom of the rifle.
   "I could of killed you, but I didn’t.  But I will if you give me any trouble." Kingsley gave Tom a real close look at the gaping muzzles of the Baker 10 gauge.

   Kingsley rolled Tom onto his stomach tying his hands behind his back, relishing the moans this caused. He pulled Tom’s boots off throwing them across the small cabin. Standing, he lashed out and kicked the man savagely in the ass, “Get the hell up, boy.”
