Produktbeschreibung

Not for the faint-hearted, this rollercoaster scifi thriller for teens and young adults once again pits our heroes, Xalata and Melody, against dark alien forces and the terrors of the unknown.

Fresh from their battle with the Cryomorph on the Moon's Farside, Xalata Orbit and Melody Fret had hoped to settle back into a normal routine at the Academy. But strange things have taken place on Mars and when the Red Planet Exploration team arrive back at LunarBase, they bring with them more than their normal cargo. The result for everyone on the Moon is catastrophic, when their lives are threatened by a terrifying attack on the Moon's human population. A seemingly unstoppable alien force transforms its victims into simulants of themselves, building an army of invaders whose purpose is to destroy humankind.

Can a weapon be found to defeat them and can two teenage girls and their friends take on the forces of ancient alien science? Can Xalata and Melody survive this second challenge so soon after the first one? Why has Rose Pretty suddenly appeared in two places at once? What dark secret does Penny Wrath hold? How has Frank Wordsmith managed to get onto LunarBase and what are his intentions, now that his plan to destroy Beijing with an asteroid has been foiled?

To discover the answers and to live the horror of a stealthy alien attack, read the second in the series, Xalata Orbit and Melody Fret.

Autorenporträt

Nick Evans is a Poole-based author who has a background in technical writing. Some years ago he wrote two books in a scifi series for children, entitled "Xalata Orbit and Melody Fret". He's also been working on a third one to complete the trilogy. However, his time in the past couple of years has been taken in writing his memoir, "A Glass Darkly", which explores the early death of his parents and the impact it had on him. Despite the subject matter, it's a heartwarming read which has been warmly welcomed.

During his extensive career in sales and marketing, he has also had a sideline as a freelance journalist, writing for The Guardian, The Times Educational Supplement and a range of magazines in education, technology and business. He has published books on the use of computers in schools and on building businesses through research.

He is now largely retired from the company - Extramile Digital - that he and his wife set up in April 2000. It's recently celebrated a landmark birthday and continues to go from strength to strength. Meanwhile, he continues writing and enjoying the wonders of the South Coast. His current project is a follow-up to "A Glass Darkly".
