1 " It's hard. Being 15, 16, 17. You get so angry. You want to do something with that anger. I guess try to find some other way to let it out. Don't kill people. Don't kill yourself. Let yourself grow up a little. Then you might start to think differently about things. You might get new opportunities to do something with your life that you never thought possible as a teenager." -- Thomas Harvey from the upcoming novel, "Nikki White: Polar Extremes" (Nikki, #3) "
― Jack Chaucer , Nikki White: Polar Extremes (Nikki, #3)
2 " Nera ... beautiful sun goddess, may I see you?" Ryzthar asked, his voice crackling with anticipation."No," she replied. "Ione dressed me today and, for once, I am grateful. What brings a troubled king up so far? To catch sight of me naked? "
― Jack Chaucer , Revenge to the Tennth Power (Mammyth, #1)
3 " It may be summer down at the lower elevations, but the goddess Ione usually defended the summit with wild or wintry weather. Hurricane-force winds, thunderstorms, ice storms, snow storms, dense fog and even hail the size of human heads -- any or all of these could be awaiting the intrepid monarch. "
4 " Sam "Snowbow" Archambeau sat on his bunk and finally sharked his thumbnail through the sealed envelope marked, “Do not open until I blast off!” It had been inserted inside an outer envelope that had flown from Amsterdam to Cape Town to Christchurch to McMurdo Station to South Pole Station.As he unfolded the red construction paper inside, Snowbow smiled at the incongruity of a rocket girl using snail mail to communicate her last Earthly message to him.-- from the upcoming novel, MARS COLONY AGATHA: NIKKI RED by Jack Chaucer, 1-1-20 "

5 " I still have a head because that child-maiming fool never caught me again. He taught me all I needed to know about this kingdom -- you better be stealthy and fast ... and realize that your next mistake could be your last. "
6 " Two Dutch, two Americans, one German and one Australian. And yet, as the rocket began to quake beneath us, my mind focused on a man in Antarctica. I thought about Sam "Snowbow" Archambeau waiting for the September sunrise to reach the South Pole. I smiled recalling him getting a haircut in a lawn chair next to the frozen barbershop pole." -- Nikki in the upcoming novel, "Nikki White: Polar Extremes" (Nikki, #3) "
7 " Suddenly Adam (Upton) hated death just as much as he hated life, and now he had absolutely no idea how to unsolve that equation.-- From my upcoming novel "Streaks of Blue: How the Angels of Newtown Inspired One Girl to Save Her School. "
8 " I must warn you," Jett said. "I'm far better at putting arrows into people than pulling them out."Antero braced himself, shook his head and said, "Doesn't matter. I want to feel as much pain as possible ... for Hagema. "
9 " We have to reach out to kids sooner. Everybody needs to step outside of their comfort zone and become friends with someone who is different, no matter what that difference is. And we all have to do it much sooner then senior year of high school. "
― Jack Chaucer , Streaks of Blue
10 " Aw, he’s in love,” Hagema cooed.“Just stop,” Antero protested. “Though I will admit she is beautiful. And she can sing. But I can’t believe she just threatened the king in front of all these people. Pure suicide.”“Damn it! That takes real ox balls! I would’ve been here sooner if this hellhole wasn’t in the middle of fuxing nowhere!” Hagema ranted. "
11 " How do you tell your mom you're following your dream when it's the one that warned you to befriend a psychotic boy before he shoots up your school?-- from the upcoming "Streaks of Blue "
12 " Just remember your mother and your song of revenge, beautiful girl. This is your time now. It's your realm. Your stage. "
13 " It's hard. Being 15, 16, 17. You get so angry. You want to do something with that anger. I guess try to find some other way to let it out. Don't kill people. Don't kill yourself.

You might get new opportunities to do something with your life that you never thought possible as a teenager." -- Thomas Harvey in the upcoming novel, "Nikki White: Polar Extremes" (Nikki, #3) "
14 " I’m so fucking jealous of her right now … all that Raptor engine power sitting under her ass, just waiting for the flip of a fucking switch.”“T-minus 20 seconds.”Thomas raised his beer toward the screen. “Safe travels, my friend,” he said.Adam, with tears in his eyes, raised his beer, too. “Mars is a lucky guy,” he mumbled.-- from the upcoming book, NIKKI RED: MARS COLONY AGATHA "
15 " And what is your job, your grace?" Nera toyed with him.The king scowled at her tone."To rule this pile of rocks and keep you immortals happy," Ryzthar shouted at the stone. "A fuxing impossible task. "
16 " I may look like a goddess to you, but know that I will always feel less than human for as long as I breathe. That's not your fault, Antero. That's the fault of those who I've already served justice to and those who will feel it soon. "
17 " You should really be the one to take off her tunic," Antero advised. "That all-men-are-evil thing ... if she wakes up and finds me stripping her bare, she might instinctively boil my blood or fireball me off the mountain."Jett nodded."I'm impressed you can still think logically and ogle my lusty body at the same time. "
18 " This was beyond freedom. Where this rocket would take her, there would be nothing but red dirt, ice and murderously thin air. No government. No police. No trees or animals. No streets, with or without names. Just a brand new, very old and very empty world, apathetic to the arrival of six human beings, one of whom remained an 11th-hour, L-minus-11 stranger to the other five. -- from the upcoming "NIKKI RED: MARS COLONY AGATHA" by Jack Chaucer "
19 " Make sure the queen is stripped bare and ready for me!" King Ryzthar declared. "This may well be my last chance to sire a male heir before the Strix-fuxing god of darkness bashes me into the underworld forever. "
20 " Nikki could barely pull herself away from the spinning alien beauty in the window, but Elon Musk was on the big screen with a drink in his hand.“Congratulations, Starship, on entering Martian orbit,” he said, smiling and raising his flute of champagne from the now very distant Florida peninsula. “Cheers to the six of you and best wishes for a safe and stellar landing on Monday.”-- from the upcoming novel MARS COLONY AGATHA: NIKKI RED by Jack Chaucer, 1-1-20 "
