Dive Deeper into The Ricovia Saga
At the heart of this story is a classic battle against corruption, but there is so very much more to this saga. Rich characters filled with their own back-story, provincial history, myth and legend. The story merges the genres of Science Fiction, Fantasy, Mystery, Organized Crime, Romance, and Legend into a single, coherent thread. There are phaser weapons and magic, shotguns and lightning bolts, forgiveness and betrayal, love affairs and tragic losses, redemption and vengeance.
One the one side is our troubled hero that values honor, truth, and justice above all else. He is Sherman “Sho-Tahn” Tanner, a self-described warrior, philosopher, pilot, and much more. His values require the protection of the innocent, even at the risk of his own life. This is a challenge of which history reports only modest success. On the other side is character known primarily as “The Old Man” who values money, power, and personal reward above all else. He has held the province of Ricovia under his boot for generations, including the local police force and much of the political systems throughout the province.
The province of Ricovia is a 1950’s era industrial society on the verge of discovering the powers of microchip technology. Nevertheless, the province is overrun with crime and corruption worthy of the 1920’s prohibition era, complete with organized crime and illegal drugs. The story begins as Sho-Tahn arrives in Ricovia Province following a disastrous space battle. He soon learns about the Old Man and the plight of the people of the province. He is forced to contend with the corrupt officers and commanders of the Ricovia Police Force and the forces of the Organization. Love affairs blossom and tragedies befall his friends and colleagues. Sooner or later, Sho-Tahn will have to face the Old Man.
