The Aurigan Solution combines the fast pace of hard-core science fiction with the complexity of political intrigue, and its focus is the historical framework of the future in which it is set.  The story chronicles a specific set of incidents that leads directly to the downfall of Humanity’s first star-spanning government - the so-called Luna Republic.
When the alien war had finally ended, a great sense of relief and optimism characterized the mood of the Human Stellar Network.  But this optimism soon gave way to disillusionment when the great oligarchs who sat in control of the Luna government did nothing to alleviate the senseless quotas and trade restrictions and, of course, burdensome taxes.  Agitation soon began.  It needed only a situation of suitable volatility to set in motion the changes that must take place.
There are moments in time around which history often swings; this story is about a few of them.

The Aurigan Solution

"Holiness?"  An old monk came up behind the Rathen, one who attended to him.  "Holiness, are you well?  Is there something you need?"


"What is it?" Saddam called from where he'd sat up in the grass under the tree.  He was vaguely disturbed at the old man's agitation.  Piqued at being so rudely pulled away from his reverie.  "The old goat's getting more and more senile," he whispered to D'oa, who grunted assent.


"There," said the Rathen, pointing again.  "Do you know what those are?  What those mean?  It's over, man.  It's finally over!"


Saddam looked where the Rathen pointed.  He could see the white streaks of the vapor trails from where he sat.  The rumbling grew louder.  "Those are just shuttles," he called.  "It's the normal flight path.  They fly over all the time."


The Rathen pointed to a young acolyte, a bodyguard who carried a weapon.  He beckoned him over to him.
