Requirements: Epub reader, 580 Kb
Overview: In the year 2025, either you have connections on the inside or you are out. On a cold rainy night in Seattle, Washington, Jeff Friedrick is on his way out. Abandoned by his girlfriend, forced into a duel then later attacked by a gang on his way home and nearly killed, he’s certain things couldn’t get worse. Yet several weeks later he also loses his job as an anthropologist. Socially isolated, unable to leave his apartment, Jeff feels his life is over. Needing to get away he decides to go on a long hike.
Renewed peace returns as Jeff wanders the forests of the Sawtooth Mountain Range. However, the weather goes sour and it begins to snow, all the birds disappear, and the wind drops off to nothing. A terrible sense of looming disaster overwhelms Jeff, but where is the threat? At that moment a gigantic earthquake strikes and he is hurled down slope and knocked unconscious.
Jeff awakens in the middle of a howling blizzard covered with several feet of snow. Digging a snow cave he passes out. Come morning, he can only stare around in unbelieving shock. The Cascade Mountains are big, but nothing compared to the enormous peaks that surround him. And where did all the snow come from? Putting questions aside he hurries to hike out before what remains of his food runs out.
Days later there is still no sign of civilization, but Jeff is convinced he will find a highway. Then, one beautiful evening he trudges up a hill to view what promises to be a great moonrise and watches in unbelieving consternation bordering on terror as two moons sail above the horizon. He stumbles back to camp in a state of profound shock. Every rationalization stripped away, he now understands there will be no highway. He is no longer on Earth. So begins the real story of Jeff Friedrick.
Weeks pass and he slowly accepts that he will never see family or friends again. Jeff also learns to trust nothing, for some of the creatures have unexpected and nasty habits. Then there are the predators following him just out of sight. One night, sitting around a campfire, he meets them.
Each of the seven novels in this series is an adventure in its own right and adds pieces to a puzzle that only seems to get bigger and more complex. The challenges and adventures never end and expand to a dimension not dreamed of or imagined possible.
