Science fiction in the classical style- Norman J. Ball penned "Earth has no tomorrow" over thirty years ago, but is only now releasing it for publication. The author notes that after all this time, he only edited 20 words.

This novel is set in the 22nd century, after Earth had recovered from a war that left 100 million dead. The world government that had come into being after this war has as priority the exploration and colonization of other planets. This program culminates in the most ambitious space exploration journey by a lone space ship from Earth named Methuselah- equipped, commanded and crewed by the best that the Space Federation has to offer. The expedition has the assignment to seek out and make contact with extra-terrestrial life and the improvement of technology.

Both objectives are magnificently achieved- but certainly not in the way expected. Norman cleverly weaves a tale that keeps the reader spell-bound with surprising twists and developments, building to a nail-biting finish.

This is one of those books that you can't put down, or want to end! The well thought-out plot is fleshed out with ample and thoroughly researched space detail and facts; the cast of characters is well-developed and plausible. The story-line quickly and effortlessly acquaints the reader with the environment- after a few chapters the ship and its crew are like old friends.

"Earth has no tomorrow" is a fast-paced novel that rapidly takes the reader along to the discovery of a "beacon" in space which turns out to be something entirely different...contact with intelligent extra-terrestrial life is established. This contact turns out to be so much more than accidental as the Earth crew learns of the impending fate of their home planet and the planned rescue mission. Heroism, sacrifice, compassion, unbounded generosity and co-operation is shown by many civilizations from a number of galaxies.

Classical science fiction at its best, seamlessly interwoven with a deep and touching compassion lifts "Earth has no tomorrow" into the kind of book that deserves a place in any library.

*"Earth has no tomorrow" is the first book in the "Terran Trilogy". Book 2, "Liatra, a planet for Earth" is nearing completion. Please check back frequently or ask to be notified of the early-bird release. This can be done from the author's blog.
