The earth year is 2258. Dalkhan government officials capture, try, and imprison Vausteau Fosteir, an earth human. Due to a later and favorable court ruling, government officials release Vausteau. His release, however, comes at a high price. Vausteau, age 30, will have to live out the rest of his life on Thalos, the dalkhan home world. Adapting to dalkhan society and culture is-physically, mentally, and emotionally-a serious challenge for this lone human, who is now stranded 70,000 light-years away on the other side of the galaxy. Yet, this is only the beginning. Two of the galaxy's mightiest superpowers, the Anatahn Military Alliance and the Rigis Coalition, are battling to achieve total galactic supremacy. For centuries, these rival military superpowers have attacked and subjugated innumerable worlds. Their continual military campaigns of conquests, internal fighting, and retaliatory attacks by rebel alliance forces are pushing the galaxy toward its greatest and deadliest conflict. Due to an extraordinary set of events, Vausteau becomes the one who will stand in defiance to both galactic superpowers. He will make the one critical decision that will affect the outcome of this conflict. However, the success of Vausteau's decision hinges on vital information sent by his direct ancestor, an individual who had lived 284 years earlier. In a multipart story, prepare to experience original and radical science fiction. Dark history, frightening intrigue and super alien technology are just a few aspects of this new and original science fiction/historical serial novel. Beginning with book 1, The Emissary, a 400-hundred-year Journey Across the Cosmos continues.
