Publisher's summary

Travel the galaxy with Astra Newtown and her Zenrayian partner on their first five missions to help alien nations in need. The Caretakers – Cozy Sci-Fi Short Stories

The Caretakers: Journey to Planet Zenray is a thrilling and heartwarming tale of heroism, friendship, and the power of hope in the face of adversity, and I would not hesitate to recommend it.”

The year is 2033, and fiery eighteen-year-old Astra Newtown is ready to begin a new phase of her life. After witnessing her parents’ murder, trying to find some sense of normalcy, and then finding out her parents weren’t who they claimed to be, the past four years have been an emotional rollercoaster. If not for the old man who took Astra into his home, she might have met that same fate. With his help, she completed her studies and is about to report for duty as a Caretaker for the Interstellar Research Group.

The IRG is an elite group of aliens from across the galaxy who have worked together for over two hundred thousand years to help worlds avoid imminent disaster. Their motto: When one world fails, the universe suffers.
In Journey to Planet Zenray, you will join Cadet Astra on her first five missions. Meet her partner, Billy and her handler Leo as they travel to different plants and use their special abilities and advanced technologies to help alien worlds onto the right path.

Tears of a Tree: On their first mission, Astra and her partner will work on Earth to plant seeds of good and help a community put aside their differences and unite to save their forests. The anger and hate that has built up over months will have to be stopped if they have any hope of success.
Honorable Eyes: Astra and Billy travel to planet Gonzen for their second mission: saving the planet’s inhabitants from a deadly virus. As a native Zenrayian, Billy must face some hard realities about his home planet as he works to help save this alien civilization.
Water My Boots: Astra and Billy travel to another planet and are met with a harsh terrain and vicious beasts—and this time, they don’t even know the purpose of their mission! First, they must find the Caretaker assigned to the planet, who tells the newcomers it’s time for them to take over her mission.
Drilling Deep: Prophet Leo partners with Astra and Billy to stop an alien bringing harm to Earth and its people through a dangerous mine. However, this is not just any alien; it is one with a painful past connection to both Astra and Leo.
Gone Fishing: Astra and Billy set out on their most challenging and dangerous mission yet. They will visit an ancient civilization on planet Argon to rescue a missing IRG agent who has missed her last five check-ins with her handler. Astra and Billy must find her, make sure none of her advanced technology has gotten into the hands of the Argon people, and bring her back to IRG headquarters on Zenray.
