"Get ready for a real surprise: an answer to a question sci-fi fans have been asking since sci-fi began. Why? Why would an advanced alien civilization be interested in us? What could we give them; what could we offer them; what could we teach them? Burnam has fashioned a tale in which such an alien race not only combs the universe looking for us—but sees us as its last hope, They're not looking for some life-saving substance, or to suck our brains out through straws. They need us—and not just anybody, but our young people—to... well, why spoil it. See for yourself in this tale of teen life and love in 21st century LA meeting—and saving—alien beings desperate to have what we've got, and take for granted. Thanks to Burnam, I for one will never look at a flying saucer the same way ever again."

Review by Harold Rabinowitz, Winner, First Runner-Up Citation, Pulitzer Prize

What if you fell into a hole but it was not really there? What if you fell into this hole, found a suit of some type that fit you perfectly and then you had to find a way to get out? What if your best friend ran for help but by the time he arrived with your father and someone else, you were able to jump out of the hole quite a number of feet and land on solid ground? What if you tried to explain what happened but no one believes you? But, one man, an ex-army sergeant Ernie does. Shadowing their movements the next day and following the same path the boys took, he uncovers something that no one would believe. Where did Mickey wind up and what happens when he and David decide to explore the area more?
Characters that interface and intertwine in many different ways with a plot line that will get readers of all ages thinking about the messages the author relates within this YA novel that everyone adults and YA’s can learn from. When the two teens remain on Europa how do they live? What obstacles will they face? Will they ever return to Earth and will we ever learn the true meaning of the value of life, living, understanding, family loyalties and love?
The saucer moves at a high speed. The landing might give you a jolt. The ending will take you on a journey you will never forget and the lessons learned are many as two teens learn the meaning of understanding and dealing with Aliens of those of another race in an environment that is new, fresh and in a form that enhances them.
The source of clean energy. The power to cure all diseases and given a special disc that holds it all. Imagine living in a world like that! But, what about the way the government, DIA and FBI react? Just who owns the technology and who will prevail? If you were Pam, David, Vicky and Mickey what would you do? One passed the test and another did not! Which two are the Chosen? Read this outstanding novel to find out.
This is a novel that is thought provoking and I hope that author Michael H. Burnam has a sequel planned.
