The Plan - Book1: Possibilities (The Plan (Five Book Quinogy))

THE PLAN, a five-book novel (quinogy) by R.W. Frazier, is a nineteenth century Western blended with a Sci-Fi vision. It is a story involving the formulation and implementation of plans; the evolution, the clashes, the contradictions, and the consequences of them. The storylines are compelling; the ideas and situations are stimulating; and the characters are unique, credible, varied, and memorable. *** *** *** Everyone has a plan. The plan may be immaculately structured, with incredible detail and a rigorous action schedule. It may be only a passing intention, barely started before being discarded at the first hint of inconvenience. The plan could be a mere hope or dream. It could be so vital that civilizations and cultures may not survive without it. The plan is never perfect. *** The plan is ever changing, evolving, growing or shrinking, perhaps succeeding brilliantly or failing miserably. Usually, the plan proceeds as a mixed bag of all possibilities. For everyone, the plan is life.... The ideas that each of us have at a particular time about how to get through life, how to make the most of life, how to enhance life, how to perpetuate life... or end it; that's the plan. *** *** *** Forlis Granger, a young man with a plan, arrives in western Wyoming in the summer of 1878. He is scientifically savvy and financially fit to spend a year or two prospecting for gold. Now alone in the world, Granger is intent on success for himself and for others with whom he can build relationships. *** The potential fallout from Granger's plan alarms a hidden group of civil servants in deep space. They must act to thwart it. Another secret group loves Granger's plan of action. An ambitious competitor has a plan that will upset Granger's in a different way. There are plenty of Granger supporters, but vicious foes, too. The known natural dangers from man and beast are formidable; the other threats are more sinister, but with altruistic motive. *** The variety of activities and situations will have you living the story from different character perspectives, admiring, despising, loving, empathizing with or seething at other characters. Concepts and descriptions presented will tickle your imagination. Clever problem solving and technical details bring the situations and activities to life. Embedded dashes of humor and surprises add to the entertainment.... THE PLAN. You will be glad you read it. *** *** *** THE PLAN - Book 1: Possibilities *** The story starts with the possibilities and potential of a systematic search for success. While learning the local landscapes, adjusting to natural dangers, and applying his abilities, the scientific nineteenth century prospector makes friends and foes as he implements his plan in an unfamiliar area. His encounters with others germinate revised personal plans, both for him and for them. *** The prospector enlists a storekeeper and a cowboy as aides whose advice and talents prove invaluable. Explorations and tests give him growing confidence that his plan will pay off in the Lundys Post area. Granger aggravates some locals who become enemies and develop their own selfish and spiteful plans. Unknown adversaries from afar already have a plan, but the prospector is about to derail it. A deep space Surveillance Pod monitoring Sol-3 initially sees Granger more as a nuisance than a serious threat to the plan it is assigned to protect. However, the Pod intends to eliminate the menace if the local adversaries do not. Senior Officers plan to use this situation as a chance to school the Pod's Juniors. *** Simple survival and ordinary objectives for individuals intertwine with vital visions for civilizations. Romantic relationships evolve, unexpected peculiarities arise, and opportunities materialize.
