About this ebook

A mysterious change in the night sky leads to a new way to explore the universe in this science fiction adventure for fans of James Cameron’s Avatar.

The son of a UFO researcher, Agent Cornell Novak is the perfect candidate for a secret government project, where humans go through “portals” and emerge as aliens. Cornell crosses a portal with Porsche, and together they embark upon a bizarre odyssey. When he returns to Earth, Cornell realizes that his greatest challenge is yet to come, as he faces secrets more shattering than any of his encounters on the other side.
