Every 8 million years an extinction event wipes out humankind...Argentine has been running for his life only to discover an abandoned ship with a secret mission. His new crew just might want the ship for themselves...The secrets of the T.L.S. Roosevelt are just starting to unfold, and the ship has already saved their lives... So, do they cut and run? Or should they continue the mission?This is the second book in the series and takes up where the first leaves off. They've barely escaped the extinction event they've set out to destroy, and they must figure out a way to do it. Of course, first they have to figure out exactly what it is, and then they're going to need to find scientific experts and other various crewmen... and it would be too much to ask for to hope they would all enthusiastically volunteer...Argentine is being forced into a command he doesn't really want, working with a lot of people he doesn't really trust, and relying on technology no one fully understands...And what about those strange ships that keep showing up in the Void? And who is this Santiago character that claims to have crossed it?Maybe someday everything will slow down enough that he can figure it all out. But, then again, maybe not...
Science Fiction allows an author to opine on all aspects of the society we live in, from the unfairness of racial, gender, or age discrimination, to the dishonesty of political leaders, to the questions of religion and a spirit that never dies.
It also allows us to explore how future technology might find answers for all of these questions.
Such are the thoughts and worlds of William Lee Gordon.
Well when you kill off your main character 5 pages into the prologue, it does not bode well for me to have any incentive or desire to read any further into the book because the main character of your story is now dead page 5 of book. So I can't say I recommend this book this is sad as I liked book 1 well enough.
