From the Author

Craig Martelle has always been passionate about writing, but wasn't able to commit full-time until recently. Adventures on RV Traveler is his fourth publication of 2016. It is the third in the Free Trader Series, with Book 4 scheduled for release in October 2016. There are so many great stories to tell, characters to develop that people can relate to, and adventures that are believable, even if they're on a distant planet with a 'cat that speaks directly into their minds. 'Cats will always be cats.
