When Simon and Katherine Hawke stumble upon an alien shuttle that has landed on earth, it’ll not only change the course of their lives, but of the entire world. Taking the shuttle into orbit, they discover a much larger ship left adrift with no one on board. Commandeering it, they confirm that we’re not alone in the universe and must prepare the human race for what is about to come. Recruiting from all over the world, they begin to expand their fleet and build a federation to give humans a foothold in the galaxy. Thus the Terran Alliance is formed, led by Simon, Kitty, Gayle, and their new comrades. Everything is going according to planned as they construct more ships, but the governments of the world are vying for control of these technologies. To make matters worse, their second encounter with an alien species is not one of peace. After the attack, they are left with more questions than answers as they face resistance from, not only outer space, but their home planet as well. #1 Best Seller in Humorous Science Fiction Newly re-edited (June 2019)! Review: Stellar new series! Can't wait for each new installment! Lots of room to grow! - After reading current top critical review, I had to go back and re-read Book 1 (after having first read 1 then 2 then critical review). Can't really understand the negative reviews. This is excellent story telling, believable premise that it's not at all hard to suspend disbelief to entertain. Well worth your time and effort. SPOILER: SPOILER: SPOILER: The end of Book 1 "Legacy" comes out of nowhere and steals your breath away! The nerve! The gall! This author kills off our hero and looks like our heroine too! WTF?! BUT, seriously, take a deep breath. Do you believe the Alliance is going to fail upon this horrible loss? Really? NO, of course not. These people our hero/heroine collected to their cause, this Alliance they've formed is by no means ended. The human species' future is at stake. The survivors BELIEVE and KNOW that they must persevere, however much their hearts ache. AND THEY DO.... And in Book 2 "Spheres of Influence" we see the Alliance move on from this tragedy....and then ANOTHER SPOILER: ANOTHER SPOILER: ANOTHER SPOILER: ...and then the Alliance learns that Simon is NOT dead! He survived! And Kitty is not dead, she's in alien healing chamber getting healed. And after some interesting drama, the Alliance recovers Simon, and proceeds on the path Simon and Kitty started them down. And Lucy is WONDERFUL! Great job, Author! Seriously great story, can't wait for next installment! Review: An exciting new space saga - Legacy is the first book in Bob Mauldin's Stellar Heritage Series. This installment follows the early formation of the Terran Alliance. Beginning with the circumstances that lead to the Hawkes possession of a super advanced alien spacecraft and following their plan to expand and protect this invaluable resource for the benefit of humanity. They face dangers from Earth and beyond. While much of the story is world-building, it contains plenty of action, adventure, and intrigue,with complex and compelling characters. I recommend this book to current and new science fiction fans. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #377,022 in Kindle Store ( See Top 100 in Kindle Store ) #759 in Colonization Science Fiction eBooks #946 in Space Fleet Science Fiction #1,145 in Alien Invasion Science Fiction eBooks | ## Images ![Legacy (Stellar Heritage Book 1) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81j-VmOQfiL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Stellar new series!

I recommend this book to current and new science fiction fans. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding new series *by W***R on April 9, 2019* The book needs some good editing but I can overlook that because of the great plot and character development. The characters come alive as people you know around you and have their quirks and foibles. I tend to appreciate the story and unless the flaws completely overwhelm the readability, I will ignore them and just enjoy the book. I have been reading science fiction for over 60 years and have seen some incredibly talented writers appear in the last 10 years with the advent of self publishing of ebooks. Despite the lack of the finer points of publishing such as good editing, this venue has allowed talent to rise and will, with time get their details resolved to everyone's satisfaction.
