MYRON J. MITCHELL* The biota of soils constitute an integral part
of both natural and agronomic ecosystems. The soil microflora and
fauna in conjunction with the belowground portion of the Metaphyta
or higher plants constitute the living milieu, components of which
are in intimate association with each other as well as the abiotic
constituents of the soil. Since these associations or interactions
are important in regulat ing both the flux and availability of
energy and nutrients, the central theme of the present book focuses
on these interactions. The effects of microfloral and faunal inter
actions with regard to overall ecosystem dynamics and specific
critical processes will be examined. HISTORICAL ASPECTS The
coverage of this volume is an extension of a vast body of
literature which dates back to the 18th century. A brief compendium
of major books and reviews published from 1960 to 1983 is given
chronologically in Tables 1 and 2, respectively. Russell (1961) has
reviewed work in the 1800's during which some of the basic tenets
on the relationships between plant nutrition and soil properties
became estab lished. In this period agricultural science was
founded and the study of soil bacteriology began. The evolution of
soil biology up to the early 1970's has been described by Satch211
in the volume edited by Dickinson and Pugh (1974). *Department of

Before the events of Fragments, there was one story that had to be
told... Destiny: a predetermined course of events often held to be
an irresistible power or agency. Newly promoted Lieutenant Logan
Starr thought he was being assigned to a second tour with his
flight crew of the Galactic Command carrier Sentry. Instead he
found out that he was being assigned to escort duty of some top
Military Advisors. As his mission begins, things seem easy...a
little too easy. Suddenly raiders attack the escort, forcing Logan
and Kari Trask, a young military advisor, to abandon ship. Crash
landing on a nearby planet, Logan & Kari must try to find a way
off the planet, while dodging the local gangs and raider militia.
In their journey, Logan learns that he has been chosen for a
greater destiny...one that he has no idea of.
2068...Lieutenant Colonel James Wolfe, U.S. Special Forces
Operational Detachment-Omega, volunteered to undergo an experiment
that would enhance the abilities of all soldiers in the program,
creating the "perfect Super Soldier." Shortly after the experiment
was completed, he was placed in cryosleep for future deployment
along with others that had undergone the process. 2278...He is
suddenly awakened from his cryosleep and discovers that he is the
only soldier left from the experiment. Upon entering the outside
world, he discovers that in the 200 years he was asleep, nuclear
war had claimed the world he once knew. Now awakened to this
strange new world, James wanders the Wastelands of what was once
the United States of America, searching for answers to the reasons
that led to these events. Along the way, he encounters strange
mutated creatures, various fractions trying to take control of the
desolated area and a few survivor-built towns. The journey for
answers has just begun in the first book of the Wastelands Saga.

On the planet Sitara, an old man advised Logan Starr he had been
chosen as part of a mysterious destiny. He was also told his
destiny was linked to Kari Trask's. Together, they would have to
solve the mysterious meaning of this joined destiny. Along the way,
they will acquire missing pieces of a map, which will lead them to
the answers that lie in an ancient location known only as the
Celestial Citadel, or does it? Along this journey, not only will
they need to find the missing map pieces, but they will encounter
new allies, explore strange worlds, and most of all learn one of
their companions is not who they appear to be.

Fragments-a part or piece that has broken off or detached; an
isolated, unfinished, or incomplete part; an odd piece, bit, or
scrap. Memory-the mental capacity or faculty of retaining and
reviving facts, events, impressions, etc., or of recalling or
recognizing previous experiences. What started as a simple test
flight of his ship's new systems turns disastrous for Logan Starr,
causing him to awaken with missing memories. As Logan tries to cope
with the process of regaining his absent memories, an old nemesis
from his past emerges seeking revenge. Along the way, gathering and
trying to piece back together all of the fragments of his repressed
memories, Logan and his friends not only have to deal with the
vengeful foe but also with the Federated Galaxy Command pursuing
them.
