Produktbeschreibung

Jim Tale never saw himself commanding the largest ever space vehicle, the Evolution, but now, as he and his crew rocket to another galaxy in the hopes of finding a new home for Earth which is on the cusp of nuclear war, Tale finds himself facing things that no one could have predicted. His closest companion, the ship's Ai - named CASS, is not only a constant source of questions about her own existentiality as an artificial intelligence, but about his life, his dreams and aspirations, and frankly, often times just a pain in his side. Together, they must overcome unbelievable hurdles to find a home for humanity, before the bombs drop, and throughout this space odyssey across the Cosmos, Jim seeks the answers to questions which have plagued him: who are we, where did we come from and how was the Universe created? Questions which will lead him to the very edge of the Universe itself and the most shocking revelations of all.

Herb Baker, a 40+ year veteran of NASA, who has interacted with many astronauts in his time, had this to say in his foreword to Earth Escape...
"I've been lucky enough to meet and become friends with many American astronauts over that time and following along with this book's brave, irreverent, plain-spoken astronaut Jim Tale reminded me of some of those real-life American heroes. No matter how dangerous and life-threatening their mission was, or how many unexpected complications they faced along the way, they were committed to completing their mission and always believed that the rewards were worth the risks."
- Herb Baker

"A fast-paced science-fiction novel that intertwines elements of suspense, romance, while tackling some of life's biggest questions..."
- Red City Review

Of you like Science Fiction surrounded by fantasy, this book is for you, if you like fantasy shot through with science fiction then this is the book for you, you are going down a corridor you are confident that you know just where this author is taking you and the direction that you were expecting does not exist, you are backtracking or going the opposite direction, it is like this most of the way through it {the book} I loved it you will also {most likely} I liked it so much that i am anxiously waiting the sequel, hope you do to!

If the author 's name is "Real", then I am missing part of the quality of this author. The depth of his mind builds as he constructs the story. His creation of the final chapters and in depth philosophical presentation are impossible to describe, only reading it is meaningful. My words sounds like some type of hippie, but it is impossible to describe. I have read thousands of books and never taken to writing as I done hear. Can't wait for sequel.
- Kindle Customer

"... a fast-paced odyssey beyond the very edge of the universe and into the void in this gripping, surprising, and very thoughtful science fiction novel."
- Charles Freedom Long - author of Witches' Gambit

"It is a wonderful piece of speculative fiction, clearly inspired by the grand masters of the genre, Asimov, Clarke and Heinlein..." "...this is dystopian sci-f at its best. Highly recommended."

Autorenporträt

Inspired by Richard Bach, author of Jonathan Livingston Seagull, Illusions and The Bridge Across Forever, I discovered not only a passion to write, but also a channel, a means of helping to raise awareness in a world where people, trying to change things for the better, were being fought and silenced, where racism, greed and war were commonplace, and a society that was being dumbed down primarily through a system of "education", cultural propaganda and ideology - both political and religious.

I write high-concept thrillers and speculative fiction in geopolitical, crime, sometimes bordering on science fiction, and often times inspiring stories.

I love story-telling and especially, I enjoy weaving my stories with compelling and eye-opening perspectives about the world we live in and hopefully, inspiring my readers to see a better vision, a higher one and a world where the good guys win and actual peace and justice is possible.
