註釋
Charles T. Bench was hired away from academia by CMT, an interstellar mining company to build a drone that uses dark matter technology to drill thru planets, not scrape their surface. After Professor Bench realizes CMT plans to strip-mine entire worlds of single elements, he refuses to participate further, and the chase is on. His Dark Matter Drive is the basis for Dancer, a living ship, and the first to reach light speed triggering an alien encounter and a trip to the past, with the alien and CMT both waiting for their return. History, and the universe, will never be the same. His crew is John Casey, the brilliant former engineering student and a survivor of Earth's war with the Cormorants; DuJour, the Aphrodite with a symbiotic relationship with Dancer; and the Gorras, a species who can share their thoughts with their twin. The action is set in the not too distant future, with realizable capabilities just around our corner.
