Five human-centric short stories from the Descansar Universe about ordinary, or not so ordinary, humans’ struggles in space.

Life in space is not always easy. Experience humans’ struggles in space. Follow Ebere when she returns to space station Descansar to find out why she was banned ten years before. Join Lisa when she discovers a damp blanket in a dry, abandoned space habitat. Comfort Anisha, the loneliest girl aboard the spaceship Stargazer. Solve the mystery threatening all future orienteering together with Sara. Help Maya find her sister after a birthday surprise gone wrong.

Descansar, the largest space station in this part of the galaxy. Home to ordinary people trying to make a living, smugglers and other criminals taking what they thought was the easy route, and security personnel always in pursuit of the truth or at least what they believe to be the truth. A hub for trade, travel, and shady dealings. On Descansar, everything can happen, and given enough time, it will…

The stories in the Descansar Universe range from the humorous to the thrilling, but all of them center around humans’ fears, hopes, and adventures.

Space Struggles includes five short stories in the Descansar Universe; Lost Friends Lost Loves, Discarded, Being Killian, The Spirit of Orienteering and Birthday Surprise.
