"This is a truly epic story, spanning many years and locations. The author has obviously done quite a bit of research into the various areas and time periods, and the depictions feel authentic. There are some great cliffhangers and plenty of twists and turns, and the heroes are all amiable characters....The cover design is evocative, and the back copy is a good preview of all of the strengths the book offers." (Writer's Digest competition judge)..........A modern-day translation of an ancient Egyptian papyrus uncovers a design for a ship able to cross the vastness of space. Its crew is the first to reach Mars where they soon learn they are not alone, and what changed Mars from a vibrant, inhabited world into one cold, dry and lifeless, is heading toward Earth. The team has to work through unforeseen perils and a terrifying encounter with an alien form moving through the universe destroying all life it finds. Can the crew rise to these challenges or will they meet their end millions of miles from Earth. If they survive, will there be a home to return to with the warning.
