About this ebook

Forbidden the Stars

At the end of the 21st century, a catastrophic accident in the asteroid belt has left two surveyors dead. There is no trace of their young son, Alex Manez, or of the asteroid itself.

On the outer edge of the solar system, the first manned mission to Pluto, led by the youngest female astronaut in NASA history, has led to an historic discovery: there is a marker left there by an alien race for humankind to find. We are not alone!

While studying the alien marker, it begins to react. Four hours later, the missing asteroid appears in a Plutonian orbit, along with young Alex Manez, who has developed some alarming side-effects from his exposure to the kinetic element they call Kinemet.

From the depths of a criminal empire based on Luna, an expatriate seizes the opportunity to wrest control of outer space, and takes swift action.

The secret to faster-than-light speed is up for grabs, and the race for interstellar space begins!

Music of the Spheres

The technology for interstellar flight exists through the power of Kinemet, but the key to unlocking its code lies in a thousand-year-old scroll left on Earth by an alien species.

When the ancient manual is stolen before a full translation is completed, Alex, Michael and Justine scramble to recover it.

Along the way, they stumble on an interplanetary conspiracy and uncover a secret that shatters their view of life and shakes the very foundations of our existence.

Worlds Away

For a thousand years the Kulsat Armada has ravaged the galaxy searching for the lost legacy of an extinct race of technologically advanced beings. They destroy anyone who gets in their way.

Now they have turned their attention to Earth and are gathering their forces for an invasion.

Justine, Michael and Alex each hold a key to stopping the enemy, but they are worlds away from each other, and they are running out of time...

Ratings and reviews

These supposed three books do not stand alone and never could. I take it, that the author had no control over this or he would never allowed such a thing to happen to a really good book. Yes one complete book. The third section still left it open for further stories but no in an awkward way. It was a tremendous read. I had already read the first book and noted that I would never read from this author again after it being left in an unfinished state or part way through the main story.. However, I had forgotten. So purchased the trilogy. I'm glad I did in the end but it was luck rather than judgement. I would advise any author to try and keep control of the format of their books. It only damages their reputation not that of the publisher. This book in three parts loses stars because of the format and me wasting my money on the first one I read.

This review is for the cost, not the actual story. The complete trilogy should be cheaper, not more expensive than buying individual copies, Google does it again. $7.71 total for individual, $7.99 for the Complete.

Good read if a bit drawn out. The author seems to have little understanding of dynamics of international relations between China, India, Bhutan and Nepal. Apart from this, it's a good read.
