A sci-fi SHORT STORY by Douglas Nelson

Elias Varn, a courier pilot, is on a routine run when disaster strikes, leaving him stranded far from his wife Mara and son Kael on Solara-3. 

Driven by the hope of returning to his family, Elias embarks on a journey through the endless stars, clinging to their memory to keep going. But as the silence of space deepens, an eerie unease creeps aboard his ship, whispering doubts that threaten to unravel his mind. 

Elias and the Stars is a gripping story of a father’s determination, the power of love, and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of an unforgiving cosmos. 

Will Elias make it back to the family waiting for him, or will the chilling unknown beyond the stars break him first?
