Produktbeschreibung

HOW FAR WOULD YOU GO TO SAVE YOUR CHILD?

Greg and Lou learn that their daughter has a terminal illness. In their desperation, they make a deal from which there is no return. When their crimes are exposed, their world is turned upside down.

Henry wants nothing more than to leave his Amish community behind, even as their land is under threat; their traditions under fire; and their faith faces its greatest test. But his mother is his world - where she goes, so too will he.

Circumstances bring these two worlds together - a family banished to the edge of the galaxy; a community praying for a new life and the re-orientation of their destiny.

But when fate abandons them to an uncharted, inhospitable planet, some struggle for survival while others embrace the opportunity to explore this strange new world.

Relationships are tested, beliefs are tried and emotions are pushed to the limit.

Yet Sha'Kert has a place for all.

"...inventive...intriguing...full of imaginative ideas and rich characters..." - Publishers' Weekly
"A well-crafted fascinating story, of love, of conflicts, of courage, resilience, and of the unquenchable curiosity to explore..." - RF Review
"A slow burn but fascinating story about making a life where you find yourself...an entrancing exploration into how humans interact with technology and how far they'll go to preserve their culture." - Whispering Stories
"...deeply introspective and spiritual...an epic journey that begins on an all-too-plausible Earth and expands to the unnumbered stars. The dichotomy between the two main story arcs fascinates: an overpopulated, tech-dependent city spanning the globe, and an [...] Amish community representing [...] rural life and religious faith." - Scott Arbuckle
"...one of the few stories to use an interesting culture like the Amish as the backbone...about co-existence of two very different cultures: can they live and work alongside each other, when they have such different value systems and beliefs?" - Monster Librarian
