It wasn’t as if Earth was blind to the risk posed by the star. Four years before it awoke, a fleet of humanoid aliens known as the Suhkai had arrived in the solar system to warn of the threat to Jupiter.
However, many on Earth didn’t take the Suhkai’s warning seriously. To them, it seemed impossible to believe that gamma bursts from a star two light-years away could annihilate Jupiter. And the Suhkai did little to rebut the skeptics.
If only the Suhkai had revealed everything they knew when they first arrived. But they didn’t.
Now astronaut Paul Morgan, aerospace magnate Augustus Amato, and scientists Helen Brock and Dennis Pritchard face excruciating choices. And together with astronaut Julia Carillo and scientists Kiera Walsh and Dante Fulton, they must not only contend with the gamma bursts but also with a more ominous danger none of them ever expected.
Dynewave, book 3 in the Rorschach Explorer Missions series, is the suspense-filled continuation of the space sci-fi adventure previously chronicled in UMO (prequel), Skywave (book 1) and Magwave (book 2).
K. Patrick Donoghue is the author of three series: the Anlon Cully Chronicles, an archaeology-based mystery-thriller series, the Rorschach Explorer Missions, a sci-fi thriller series, and the Unity of Four, a futuristic medical thriller series.
Patrick’s inspiration for the Anlon Cully Chronicles is rooted in his long-standing interest in ancient civilizations. In particular, a series of still-unexplained archaeological discoveries that suggest at least one advanced society thrived on Earth long before consensus views.
In similar fashion, Patrick takes a contrarian/alternative view toward deep space exploration, the existence of extraterrestrial life and ancient aliens in the Rorschach Explorer Missions.
He lives in the Washington, D.C. area with his wife and two sons.
