Product Description

Product Description

An Earthbound science fiction adventure that weaves a tale over five thousand years in the making.

Across the galaxy, and through the millenia, a secret is kept that would shake the very foundations of humanity. On another sweeping tendril of the Milky Way, a race of advanced telepaths imprisoned on a space station uncover The Icarus Files and the key to their salvation: a tiny rift in time and space, which unlocks the past, as well as the future, of two worlds.

When James Beckum, our hero from SETI, gets wind of a mysterious craft, and a secluded landing site, he can hear his destiny calling. Determined to make his mark in history, Beckum escapes his ordered life as a desk jockey, and sets out on his greatest adventure.

(A medium sized novel, 100,000 words - approx. 350 print pages)

3.0 out of 5 stars Okay Read 29 Nov 2012

This novel was an okay read for a sci-fi. It was more of a puff piece of easy reading. On the whole I considered this an average work. I know the author has a love of helpful aliens and that came out in the reading. However, the characters themselves did not have a personal crisis of growth to overcome or triumph over, so there wasn't a lot of connection to the characters. The "villians", and I use this loosely, were the military and even that was on in the last 1/4 of the novel. A little heads up with a blurb about the sexuality issues would have been a helpful note for those looking at getting this novel. I won't be keeping this one in my library.
