Book One in the Fractured Galaxy trilogy, Random Walk is the story of three U.S. Air Force Space Command astronauts: Colonel Derek Williams, a mild-mannered, experienced space traveler; Captain Jacob Mendez, the ship's playful navigator; and civilian Vicky Abrams, an introverted accelerator physicist and the newest member of the crew. Together, the diverse crew sets out on the Air Force's first manned space mission, heading for Mars to test a new propulsion system developed in cooperation with NASA that will significantly shorten the trip to the red planet. When the spacecraft is unexpectedly flung out of our solar system, the crew has to set aside their differences and work together to survive without help from Ground Control. While their colleagues on Earth scramble to figure out what happened to them, Derek, Jacob and Vicky must find solutions that don't exist to a situation that shouldn't be possible.
