When Mitchel Creek, average mid-western I.T. guy, woke up, he expected to be home in with his family -- not on a ship hurtling through space, centuries in the future. And certainly not with a dead body on board. Mitchel's adventure to find out how he got in this mysterious, unsettling, and dangerous time and place -- and how to get back home -- brings him together with pirates and anarchists in a greater fight against an imperial government that seeks to control all the worlds humans have colonized since leaving Earth. It also brings him face-to-face with a threat even greater than inter-planetary empire. "Singularity Deferred" is a science fiction adventure that brings together elements of space opera and hard SF to create a dramatic story with mystery, action, political intrigue, romance, and a touch of humor.
