Why “Nebula” Books?

I love science fiction books! On a weekend morning, you would likely find me sitting on the floor of a library or used bookstore poring over stories about life in other star systems. These stories are usually allegories for our own world.

A nebula is a place with lots of gas and matter. As nebulas continue to grow and attract more material, they eventually transform that material into bright, light-giving stars. In my perspective, financial data is the swirling material that, when well ordered, can turn your business into a shining star.
