Resumen del Editor

When first appearances turn out to be wrong . . .What happens when a far-flung mining expedition with an element of space exploration becomes a harrowing tale of survival and escape? Find out in the first brief novel in the series The Odyssey Affair, deftly blending science fiction, fantasy, and suspenseful thriller.

Metallurgist and Mine Engineer, Second Class, Franklin Collier gets a lot more than he bargains for when he signs up for a surlenium mining job with Stellar Metals, Inc., on Dekon 6. In fact, almost nothing is the way it seems, it turns out.

Franklin and the rest of the crew are supposed to be collaborating with the elegantly humanoid and highly advanced Dekonians in this mining venture. Lieutenant Jacobs thinks the Dekonians have a perfectly Utopian society. But something is amiss.

For there are the inexplicable, ape-like Loksi who are either deadly dangerous or seeking to aid them and who seem to have been coerced into serving the Dekonians. After a mine disaster, some of these Loksi either capture or rescue Franklin and Sheila Jenkins, Assistant Director of Metallurgical Studies.

From there, it’s all a matter of figuring out exactly what is afoot on Dekon 6, why they can’t contact the ship, the Odyssey, and what their next move should be. Did the mining crew need to escape? Could they? Slowly, inexorably, events unfold moving toward a revelation on Dekon 6.

Take this suspenseful, revelatory ride in the first book in the science fiction series titled The Odyssey Affair – a brief first contact and exploration science fiction novel. Read it, that is, if you aren’t afraid to have your assumptions shaken.
