The clock ticks down to a potentially catastrophic asteroid collision and the fate of humanity hangs in the balance after an astrophysicist at Lowell Observatory in Arizona, makes a shocking discovery: a Near-Earth Object, hurtling towards Earth with the destructive power of the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs.
With time running out, NASA's Planetary Defense Coordination Office launches a desperate race against the clock to save humanity. Will they succeed in their plan to send a spacecraft to knock the asteroid off course?
But as nations rally to help and a project to build a kinetic impact rocket gets underway, sinister forces emerge, determined to sabotage the mission and seal the fate of humankind. Who are these shadowy figures and what do they want? Will they succeed in dooming the Earth, or will humanity rise to the challenge and save our planet from certain destruction?
Previously an IT professional and now a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) teacher in Brazil, Greg Krojac published his first book in 2016, and now has a total of eight novels, seven novellas, and eight short stories under his belt.
Having had a love for science fiction since the early days of hiding behind the couch and watching Doctor Who (along with thousands of other British kids in thousands of other British homes) it was only natural that he should adopt Science Fiction as his genre - although he does occasionally veer off and write something more akin to Horror. Some writers stick to one sub-genre of sci-fi but he prefers to wander around the sub-genres plucking inspiration from various sources and producing stories that are - well - different.
Born and raised in south-east England, he moved to Brazil in 2007, where he lives with his wife, Eliene, their dogs and a cat. When he's not writing (or doing something book-related) or teaching, he supports Eliene in her running career (she's a successful amateur athlete with well over forty race wins to her credit) and enjoys watching his Premier League team, Tottenham Hotspur, on TV.
