Paperback. Meet Sam. Sam is a genetically enhanced soldier of the Sci-Fi future, a secret agent of the top most priority. Together with his partner Zule, they complete the most dangerous (and ominous) missions throughout the solar system on behalf of Earth's evil government. Although it becomes clear in Sam's conscience that what they are doing is wrong, Zule is not convinced. However, after finding out the dark history behind their past, Zule goes berserk and attacks their base. Sam is left to pay the penalty. Foiling his attempted assassination, Sam is forced into exile where he hopes to find his partner and only friend. However, when he stumbles upon an advanced alien piece of technology, the unexpected happens! Supposing it's a weapon, Sam activates the relic, and finds himself accidentally pulled into another universe! Sam ends up on a space ship, face to face with the strangest creatures he'd ever seen. Unfortunately, their ship is attacked and they crash land on the planet surface below, the planet of Titrika. On a strange alien planet, in an alternate dimension, and 10,000 miles away from an advanced civilization, Sam is forced to cope with his new alien companions. Sam immediately befriends Kenochi, a Yat-Yat and the leader of the group. Kapi, a Zari and co-pilot, also quickly becomes a friend with Sam. But Sojay, the reptilian Captain of the ship is not so optimistic of Sam at first. Neither is Erik, the mysterious ferret. He's a Shape Shifter who's become part of the alien crew. He's over 1,000 years old and doesn't know where he came from, or anything about his supposedly extinct race. Erik poses as a pet of the group. His smarts though do not go un-noticed by Sam, who is suspicious of his role and his fond relationship with Kapi. Together these aliens make up the Imperial Knights of the Titrikan Empire, also secret agents of the top most priority. They serve and protect the Emperor, the Titrikan Empire, and it's alliances. Using highly advanced technology called a Phase Shift Drive, they're able to travel great distances inter-dimensionally. Sam and the group head off through the prairies and woodlands of Titrika on a great adventure to get to Jayak Village, the home of the Gate of Holianji. It's a portal that Kenochi's father created. And with it, they can reach the Titrikan Empire. Along the way they face Medieval armies, terrifying Grullocks, and the notorious General Kanglu - who kills Gamallon, a companion the group find along the way. General Kanglu has also plotted an attack against the Empire. He's amassed an army, employed the help of the dreaded Jukai, and has developed a deadly new weapon: And he's heading straight for the portal! It's up to Sam and the mis-fit alien crew to stop him! Along their journey, Sam finds himself haunted by his past deeds and his worries of Zule and the Earth. Every night, he suffers from bad dreams and flashbacks. What he doesn't realize, is that this new found journey will lead to his redemption and a new life. The group then finds that they are the only ones with a secret key to the portal, and when they finally reach Jayak Village via a Cloud Ship, they must fight General Kanglu and his army to reach the portal first. After reaching the Empire and defeating General Kanglu, Erik the Shape Shifter finds a lead about his past which may lead to a whole new technological age for everyone, and the satisfaction of a lifetime of curiosity. Also while in the Empire Sam is chosen by the Emperor to become one of the Imperial Knights and his destiny is changed forever. After two more assassination attempts - in a Universe not his home, Sam is finally able to return to Earth. But will he want to stay? This is a Sci-Fi and Fantasy adventure that you don't want to miss! This item is printed on demand.
