As the "Evermore Trilogy" begins, Jack Rand is a thirty-year-old nobody until he meets Unim, a biped plant from the planet Zeta6. It's a textbook alien abduction that suddenly goes awry when Unim's mutiny aboard the starship, Luminer, changes everything. Overnight, Jack's hometown of Evermore, Pennsylvania, becomes the staging ground for retaking the starship, a scientific craft commissioned by the rulers of Zaroz, Zeta6 and Hool. Its mission: to create artificial human beings from the thoughts of Earthlings. The battle for control of Luminer is a high-stakes contest to see which side can capture the hearts and minds of five unwitting Earthlings. Commander Zhorin will stop at nothing to complete his mission. Caught in the middle are two artificially-created human sisters who seek revenge against those who are responsible for creating their fatally-flawed bodies. In the balance, lies the fate of planet Earth and the entire Milky Way Galaxy. Copyright © 2002. 1st Ed. 11-23-04.
