FROM THE AUTHOR: EARTH'S LAST WAR is approx. 120,000 words. It has little if any filler. Personally, I hate a 3 page description of how a star-drive engine operates (or even 3 paragraphs). I like a story that moves fairly quickly between events like they do in Star Wars, Star Trek, Babylon 5 or Battlestar Galactica. If you do too, then I believe this book is for you.The novel does provide a stopping point for those that want to end on a HAPPILY EVER AFTER - or continue on to the...

Personally, I hate a 3 page description of how a star-drive engine operates (or even 3 paragraphs). I like a story that moves fairly quickly between events like they do in Star Wars, Star Trek, Babylon 5 or Battlestar Galactica. If you do too, then I believe this book is for you.The novel does provide a stopping point for those that want to end on a HAPPILY EVER AFTER - or continue on to the EPILOGUE with the BIG, DARK CLIFFHANGER that leads into the sequel. Muhahaha.Earth's Last War is adventure, action and romance, amid a journey across the stars. It is a space opera, similar to Star Wars and Star Trek. EARTHS' LAST WAR is the full blown sci-fi, action and romance novel 'I' had always wanted to read but couldn't find.NOW, on to the fun stuff...Professionally Edited by Brook Anderson. Exclusive cover (done to EXACT story depiction) by WORLD CLASS ILLUSTRATOR, Claudio Aboy! You get a FREE HD copy at the end of the book to download.THE SYNOPSIS...EARTH'S LAST WAR tells the story of Steven Sherrah, the man who commands Earth's last surviving starship. He has been struggling to keep the handful of Earth's survivors alive, hiding from the most vicious and powerful enemy humanity has ever known, an enemy that is relentless in his determination to see that every last human is killed.His life is turned upside down as Ashlyn Parker, a woman genetically engineered to be mentally and physically perfect - the next step in humanity's evolution, awakens from stasis. For her protection, she had been cryogenically frozen when Earth was attacked. Her return is brutal, for she awakens fifteen years later into a post-apocalyptic Earth. Everyone she had known before is gone, the world destroyed.From the first moment that the distress signal is received and Steven meets Ashlyn, his heart is inexplicably drawn to her, as she is to him. Her presence challenges all that he has known, for within her, she holds secrets to a past he had never known existed.As the two of them join forces, secrets are unveiled. The survivors are given a reason to hope. Her abilities, knowledge and support will help Steven lead the survivors on a journey across the stars where they will discover that humanity is far more important than they ever thought possible.The historical references and ideas in EARTH'S LAST WAR are a compilation of study and research based upon the works of Carl Sagan, Zechariah Sitchin and Richard C. Hoagland to name a few. This 'fictional' story is logical and plausible.*Fun science facts! There is 'sound' on the moon. Seismic vibrations like those the astronauts experienced when hammering, can be heard inside an astronauts suit, where there is air.Also, there are 'shockwaves' in space. Plasma waves, various gasses, gravitation and CME's can do it. The Voyager spacecraft experienced 3 such shockwaves, announced publicly Dec. 2014. Scientists report that space is 'full' of shockwaves by the millions in various forms.
