Starwarden
21 06 2012
Almek Manning survived the first part of his military training at the Solar Fleet’s boot camp, and now he must face the rigor of life at the Academy. Meanwhile, the cease-fire between the Solar Fleet and the United Monarchy of Europe is becoming increasingly fragile, and Almek has began to wonder if he can finish his education quickly enough to help fight the war… However, Sky Marshal Kitt, Jack Dalton, and High Admiral Numair have plans for the young midshipman and Almek’s choices may yet decide the outcome of the war.

Audiobook
25 04 2012Howdy Everyone!
I just wanted to give y’all an update for April.
Starwarden (Book 2)
I’m about half way through the first round of editing.
I’ve contacted my cover artist, and he’s working on the cover. I’ll post pictures as soon as I get some.
Now the really good news!
I’m working on getting a contract set up for an audiobook for the Zochtil! Once it comes out it will be available from Audible.com, Amazon.com and hopefully iTunes. I won’t give any more information than that until the contract is set in stone, but you’ll be happy with the narrator I’ve got lined up. He’s the best. I plan to have the audiobook finished up by the end of August, so not long after book 2 comes out.
J.A. Dalley

Images of Draconian Ships that will appear in The Starwarden
21 03 2012
This is a Draconian Carrier Class Mother Dragon. This ship has rotating sub-light engine “wings.” The fighters and bombers leave through the bottom of the ship were there are multiple fighter and bomber bays.
This is a standard Draconian Fighter.
This images have been provided by my new artist Thomas Peck.

Starwarden
15 02 2012Just wanted to give y’all an update.
Book 2 in the Almek Manning series, the Starwarden is scheduled for release in June. I finished the second draft yesterday. I will spend the next month working on book three, at which point I will switch back to the Starwarden and begin the final editing process.
Sneak Peak at Book 2: The Starwarden
Part 1: The Academy
Part 2: Dalton Space Force
Part 3: The Starwarden
Also I pay tribute to Robert Heinlein again in this book. One of the ships that Almek Manning serves on is the Robert Anson Heinlein, a Fast Cruiser Carrier.
On another note, I am up to four reviews. I’ll post the fourth later.

Third Review
2 02 2012As a life-long fan of science fiction, I found “The Zochtil” to be a very entertaining. The characters are engaging and interesting. The story is a fast-paced, action-packed experience. Mr. Dalley weaves many new and intriguing sci-fi aspects into his tale. A great beginning to a sure to be thrilling series.
