Captain Jenkins: Flowers for Alcyon

In the year 2260, twenty-three Alternate Earths have been discovered. Each one of them is nearly identical to our own, with one big difference: they are all inhabited by beings that went extinct on our planet long ago, or that most people think never existed at all. As big of a breakthrough as this was for science, the discovery of these other Earths quickly led to the discovery of something else: ways to smuggle things from them.That's where I come in. I, Alycon Jenkins, am the youngest woman at The Academy to ever be awarded the title of Captain. Together with my crew and my beautiful ship Lucinda, my job is to return stolen things and creatures to the place (and time) where they belong. I just wasn't expecting that crew to be composed of a bunch of rude, disrespectful teenaged boys. An obstinate First Mate, a clueless chef, a defiant doctor, a mocking pilot, and a handsome but brooding Lieutenant make for bad company as we make our first journey up among the stars. But a venomous plant, an ancient curse, and a dead body on the bridge might just make for some good team-building exercises... This first installment in Jessica Scott Romano's six-book space opera series mixes elements of science fiction and fantasy to take readers on a fun, fast-paced adventure through a galaxy filled with danger, friendship, romance, and maybe even an alien or two.
