5,001 - A Science Fiction Romance Short Story Read online

  Rumors emerge that Catherine Shahrazad, possibly the oldest person in the galaxy, has returned from the fringes and has been seen in Federation space. Wherever she goes, her name and her history cause civil unrest, riots and worse. The Federation Board doesn’t want her there. Neither do the leaders of Cadfael College, the educators and moralists of the galaxy. No one pays any attention to the reticent navigator called Bedivere X, who pilots her ship better than she does.

  The truth about Bedivere threatens the entire Federation.

  His feelings for Cat might just save everyone.

  This book is part of the Interspace Origins space opera romance series:
