"Excellent story! It was an interesting plot that was well built. The ending definitely took me by surprise. Your summary at the end helped make sense of the environment that you created for the story. I might add that my 8 year old son is obsessed with the universe, including black holes and planetary physics. I will feed his mind by reading the relevant parts to him. Thank you very much for the story. "

"It’s not easy to write SIFI novel. If its in the far future , the science can be as far out as you want as long as you don’t violate the known laws of physics to badly. But when the story takes place in the present, the science has to be much more accurate. This author has written a well paced adventure thriller fit for a tv Series pilot. The story grabbed me from the first 2 pages and refused to let me go until the end. What else can I say but well written, well done. Bill Lesburg"

Pa'an (revised version)

"Stories with AI's (Autonomous Intellects, registered sentient) usually have dull, dry characters. Not this one! Aura is very definitely a Mata Hari. She is in intimate communication with Zovarcnor, an AI of the Pa'an who was sent out to monitor human development on Earth. That thread of the story brings us to scenes with the actual alien Pa'an, who, limited by the speed of light, are still 20 light years away but they communicate by advanced technology.. Zovo reveals that human civilization is headed for a catastrophe. He describes the immense cosmic project that the Pa'an, the galaxy's premiere advanced sentients, have prepared. That project caused gravity waves that are just now reaching Earth. Jaeger Kunstler is a high-level agent of the Order, a mysterious group that has existed for many centuries. The Order plans a culling of humans. Two factions disagree over the method of this culling, but either way billions will die. Jaeger revolts when he finds out what the Order has done to his parents. He forms a team with Aura, a contingent of colorful mercenaries, and representatives of the US and UK governments to thwart the the Order. At that point the Pa'an offer all humans the use of their cosmic construction project. All hell lets loose. The characters are multinational, well-drawn and engaging. The plot winds and twists in unexpected fashion and resolves with a surprise. Oh yes, this is a complete story. There are no follow-on books for you to get."
