Produktbeschreibung
In a universe where music is a narcotic, an alien must protect a brilliant Irish composer from abduction. Music from Earth has a profound impact upon alien species who use it as a mind-altering drug. Our planet is fertile ground for a ruthless off-world cartel called the Abductors who hunt musicians to sell as commodities. These kidnapped musicians are then forced to perform for those wealthy enough to purchase them. Countering the Abductors are the Protectors, who have long dedicated their energy to guarding musicians from these ruthless traffickers. Lindsey is from the planet Thales and is a Protector waiting for her first assignment. When a brilliant teenaged composer is discovered in Ireland, a boy of such incredible talent his music can alter space, the Abductors plot to capture him. The Protectors must rush the inexperienced Lindsey to protect Ryan Reilly, his mother, and his sister from the predatory Abductors. Against the turmoil of an intergalactic war, Lindsey must succeed before Ryan's ability destroys the universe.
Autorenporträt
Chris Allen started writing as an archaeologist composing technical reports for academia and the private sector. Along the way, she discovered creative composition. Her short stories, often with a humorous point of view, have been published in several anthologies, and she has won numerous local and national awards for both writing and editing. Her latest book, Alchemy's Way, a mystery written with Patricia Walkow, was published in 2023. The Music of Creation is her first collaboration with her husband, Paul Knight. They live on a small farm with a menagerie of animals in New Mexico. Paul Knight has a master's degree in botany with a strong intertest in geology, paleontology, and archaeology. His work has appeared in numerous scientific publications. Throughout his career as a field botanist, he has explored much of the southwestern United States. These long trips provided countless hours to think and imagine, resulting in an endless stream of stories. This novel, and others to come, are the fruits of those adventures. He met his wife and coauthor Chris Allen on an archaeological dig, and since then they have lived, loved, and worked together on a small farm in New Mexico.
