Overview

For nearly a century, the Alien Corps searched the galaxy looking for the Son of God. They found nothing...until now.

 

The empath Hickory Lace and her team are dispatched to the planet Prosperine to assess the latest candidate in a long line of potential messiahs.

When they arrive, the team discovers a fantastic world of predatory beasts and deadly plants. To make things worse, the planet looks set to explode into a civil war that would threaten Earth's supply of crynidium, a rare metal essential for faster-than-light travel.

If she is to succeed in her mission, Hickory must embrace the empathic gifts she was born with. Only then can she hope to stop the rebellion, discover what this alien messiah is up to, and decide whether he is a fraud or perhaps the very person the Alien Corps has long been searching for.

 

What readers are saying about this thrill-a-minute science fiction adventure.

"A Great read. Had me at the first chapter. I didn't want to stop reading. Loved the plot, the storyline, the action!!"

"Fantastic Story! From start to finish, chock full of really interesting characters doing really dangerous stuff, this story was fabulous. The twists made it difficult to put down. Dinner time was an annoyance. Loved it!"

"McDermott creates a very original and hopeful future world similar to the kind of sci-fi I grew up loving. His alien characters are delightful and believable. I couldn't wait to read the second book, Rise of the Erlachi, which is even better!

About the Author

I was born and bred in Scotland. As a schoolboy, I read Sci-Fi morning, noon, and night reveling in the genius of Asimov, Herbert, Niven, Moorcock, and Le Guin. These days, I love the fantasy novels of Robin Hobb, George Martin, and the modern SF writers, Vaughn Heppner and Alex Weir.  My first book was the highly acclaimed coming-of-age novel, Small Fish Big Fish, now released as Caught in the Long Grass. Since then, I've returned to my first love and published mainly Sci-Fi/Fantasy books. The Alien Corps, Rise of the Erlachi, The Scarf and Fractured Prophecy are all part of the Prosperine Series.  My home is Australia, where I live with my wife, two wonderful daughters and grandchildren, Mia, Ryder Patrick, and Ethan.
