The Starchild Compact
Robert G. Williscroft
Is Saturn's moon Iapetus really a derelict starship?
"Hard sci-fi reminiscent of Arthur C. Clarke or James P. Hogan, with a geopolitical twist worthy of Tom Clancy or Clive Cussler." —Alastair Mayer, Author of the T-Space Series
The Starchild Compact is an adventure of heroic proportions, commencing on a planet 500 lightyears distant, arriving here just a few years from now, and ending up in the far distant expanses of the Universe.Is Saturn's moon Iapetus an artifact? To find out, Jon Stock takes his international exploration team on a 1.4 billion km journey to Saturn, but will Jihadist stowaway Saeed Ismail succeed in sabotaging the mission? On Iapetus, Jon Stock and his team meet the Founders. Where are they from? How did they get here? How will they impact Earth and the Solar System?
Will the Founder's presence signal the end of humanity, or will it pave the way for a joint push to the distant reaches of the Galaxy?
