As new information is gathered and plans evolve, general intentions become more specific and decisions are made that will affect multiple human generations. The prospector and the local who will become his main adversary discuss a partnership. Granger formalizes his support network and claims his first gold mine. His modest opportunities grow into chances for wealth. The prospector's new love is active with her rivalries and "stings" as ever, but works diligently on her plan to ease the burdens of a friend. The Cowboy courts his girl and they face a struggle for survival. The youngest member of the fruit family is always a step ahead of his companions.The hidden, deep space Surveillance Squad monitoring Sol-3 takes steps to mitigate the threat he poses to its plan, but it also must address a more pressing problem. The advanced Squad watching both the prospector and the Pod also has a plan to protect; it launches a counter-plan. The Squad secretly supports the Pod in numerous ways on many issues; however, the Squad is now intent on wrecking the Pod's effort to extend the viability life of Sol-3. Romance blooms, and the Annual Festival brings not only pleasant distraction, but also growing animosity. Mining competition and dastardly acts are on the horizon. Tensions in the Lundys Post area are growing, although still invisible to most there. ******************** THE PLAN, a five-book novel (quinogy) by R.W. Frazier, is a nineteenth century Western blended with a Sci-Fi vision.... The adventure and charm of the Old West, wrapped in the intrigue and excitement of a unique space opera.... An intricately-plotted story with romance, action, bold scientific concepts, thoughtful social insights, witty popular-fiction references, and nuanced plot twists.Unknowingly, an 1878 prospector's plan for success may trigger an extinction event on Earth... a Yellowstone supervolcano eruption. He is recruiting new friends to help his gold mining efforts, but also making enemies who are intent on stealing his ideas and eliminating him. A hidden organization, bent on protecting humankind, plans to stop the mine work and forestall the extinction disaster. However, another deep-space group, hidden even more thoroughly than the first, intends to foil any plot to eliminate the prospector. That group wants the supervolcano eruption accelerated, and the prospector serves as its needed catalyst. Complicating everything are the plans of other intelligent species, who are sabotaging human worlds. They present humankind with a threat far more dangerous than a supervolcano eruption.This book is the second of five that cover the full story.THE PLAN. You will be glad you read it. ******************** Everyone has a plan. The plan may be immaculately structured, with incredible detail and a rigorous action schedule. It may be only a passing intention, barely started before being discarded at the first hint of inconvenience. The plan could be a mere hope or dream. It could be so vital that civilizations and cultures may not survive without it.The plan is never perfect. The plan is ever changing, evolving, growing or shrinking, perhaps succeeding brilliantly or failing miserably. Usually, the plan proceeds as a mixed bag of all possibilities. For everyone, the plan is life.... The ideas that each of us have at a particular time about how to get through life, how to make the most of life, how to enhance life, how to perpetuate life... or end it; that's the plan.
