Product Description
by Ralph L. Stephenson (Author)
In the near future, climate change caused by man made environmental factors threatens to make the Earth a lifeless desert planet. John and Larry, boyhood friends, wealthy entrepreneurs, and amateur radio enthusiasts, find an ancient pagoda they believe is actually an antenna that can be used to contact aliens. They make contact, although not in the way they had envisioned, and find out Earth is within the boundaries of an organization of planets called the Confederation Galactica. Within the Confederation are two opposing groups, one of which wants to save the Earth and one of which wants to let it become a hot desert planet. The aliens from the Confederation who want to save the earth from catastrophic climate change appear to be altruistic and idealistic and offer to help the humans. John and Larry join them and save the earth, but are the aliens all that they seem to be? They find there is a horrific price to pay for cooperation.
