It's been five years since Mickey passed the Europans' test, saving the Europans and planet Earth. Pam and David are living on Europa in a wondrous habitat where anything seems possible, and have twins with unusual abilities. Earth is transforming into a Utopian paradise thanks to the Sphere, an alien hard drive filled with advanced technology gifted to Earth by the Europans. But Mickey, who chose to remain on Earth, suspects the Europans of having a secret, more sinister agenda. When he severs his connection to the Sphere and begins to investigate, Mickey is captured by the Sphere Cult and put on trial for his life...The second book in the thrilling YA sci-fi series from Michael H. Burnam, The Next Step, asks what happens when Evolution progresses to immortality?

The Last Stop launches with a mystery that rides on a youthful sense of wonder and curiosity as did J.J. Abrams' Super 8. The adventure travels into new territory on the power of daring speculation and scientific accuracy that take voyagers beyond the ambiguity of 2001: A Space Odyssey. NASA'S current inclusion of a Europa mission makes The Last Stop feel prescient and real.--Michael C Green, Veteran Television Network Producer and Studio Executive, The Matrix Reloaded, Superman, Clear and Present Danger

 

A refreshing change-of-pace novel about a group of teens who accept the challenge of a dying race and save two worlds, theirs and ours, in an ET-type thriller that explores the proper use of power.--John Nelson, former director of the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra, author of Matrix of the Gods, and I, Robot
