Why we're reading this
It is the 23rd century. Humankind has reached the stars, building a tentative empire across a score of worlds. Earth's central government rules weakly as several worlds continue their efforts toward independence. Shadow organizations hide in the midst of the political infighting. Their manifestations of power and influence are beholden only to the highest bidder. The most powerful/insidious/secret of these, The Lazarus Men, has existed for decades, always working outside of morality's constraints. Led by the enigmatic Mr. Shine, their agents are hand selected from the worst humanity has to offer and available for the right price. https://www.amazon.com/Lazarus-Men-Agenda-Book-ebook/dp/B09L2CPT2L/

Big mama knew how to bring the family together. It would happen all of a sudden. It's funny, she just knew when it was time. She wouldn’t say a word, she would pull out an old drum, a Djembe drum to be exact and she would just start playing it. She had a very distinct rhythm a very special beat. it would carry near and far. https://www.amazon.com/Boom-Tum-Tum-Tat-Tat-Tat-Gerald-Anderson/dp/B09YQSM472/
