Embarkment 2577
Embarkment
2577 series all 3 novellas
Maria
Hammarblad
Genre: Scifi Romance
Description:
When Alexandra wakes up to an unknown environment,
populated by a cat-like woman with a tail and a hologram of a rockstar, she
knows she has to be hallucinating. Maybe she has hit her head, or finally
suffered a nervous breakdown. It doesn't get any better from finding out she
died and was taken into the future by the elusive Adam, whom she can't
remember, or from people telling her she's on a spaceship.
The last year or so is gone from her memory, and
she has no choice but to try to adapt. As days go by, her new environment
becomes more and more unnerving. She finds herself helpless, and completely
dependent on a man who isn't even human.
Contains all three
novellas from the Embarkment series; "Brand New World," "High
Gravity," and "Adam and Eve."
Adam and
Eve
Embarkment
2577, Novella 3

Hammarblad
Genre: Scifi Romance
Description:
In this third novella in the "Embarkment
2577" series, Alex thinks nothing more could possibly stand between her
and the peaceful and secluded life she covets. There aren't any aliens standing
in line to meet her, no vengeful humans sneaking up on her, and no black holes
anywhere in sight. She has found a home and a family, and nothing more could
possibly go wrong. Right?
All she has to do before curling up in the sofa is
to escort an unexpected visitor to the guest quarters until the Captain has the
time to meet the newcomer. Should be a walk in the park...

Author Bio:
Born in Sweden in the early 1970's, Maria showed a large interest for books at an early age. Even before she was able to read or write, she made her mom staple papers together into booklets she filled with drawings of suns and planets. She proudly declared them, "The Sun Book." They were all about the sun. She also claimed, to her mother's horror, that her being on Earth was a big mistake and that her alien family would come and bring her home at any moment. This never happened, but both the interest in space and the passion for bookmaking stayed with her.
As an adult Maria's creativity got an outlet through playing bass in a number of rock bands, and through writing technical manuals and making web pages for various companies and organizations. She did write drafts for a few novels, but the storytelling muse was mostly satisfied through role playing online on Myspace. It was here, while writing stories together with people from around the globe, she stumbled onto Mike. They started talking out of character, and she moved over to Florida to him late 2008. Today the two are married and live in the Tampa Bay area with three rescue dogs.
Besides writing and playing bass, Maria enjoys driving off-road, archery, and Tameshigiri.
