Stuck in the Middle

Jake White was your typical middle-aged father, until by sheer bad luck, a sentient artificial intelligence (AI) in a worn-out alien scout ship befriended him and asked for help with a small problem. That small problem made Jake and an old Special Forces buddy, Marc Stack, the two most wanted terrorists on Earth. If that wasn’t enough, Jake had to come to terms with the fact that he was no longer one hundred percent human. In fact, he wasn't human at all.

To compound their problems, humanity was one of many sentient beings in the galaxy that extraterrestrials with a galactic corporate agenda had interfered with for thousands of years. In an effort to rid Earth of extraterrestrial influence Jake, Marc, a handpicked group of Special Forces operators and their companions, head off to the home world of the United League of Interstellar Races (the League) to ask for help in ridding Earth of alien influence.
Much to their surprise, they find out that despite the League being many times larger and thousands of years more technically advanced than Earth, the League’s leaders just might be more afraid of humanity then we are of them.

No matter what Jake does to free Earth from alien influence, he finds that circumstances keep putting him into deeper and deeper holes. Never could he have imagined the grave consequences of his team's actions. All he wanted was a little help dealing with a few extraterrestrials who were trying to subjugate Earth. How hard could that be?

Stuck in the Middle, is the second book of the Undreamt Consequences trilogy. It explores the premise that advanced civilizations will have artificial intelligences and biological beings interacting as equal citizens; so much so that the AIs appear to behave more 'human than humans.' The book continues to offer a refreshingly different take on “extraterrestrials are the good guys and here only to help humanity with our journey to the stars.”
