| WWW.BEYOND-STARLIGHT.COM Fall into the dark energy well of the Genesis Point located at the ignition point of the big bang and you may discover the back door that leads to the architects of the universe, if you survive. That is the warning told to Abbey on a lonely mountain side rain forest in Costa Rica by a young man who is a visitor from a parallel string in the multiverse. The cosmic drifter relates his encounters with an alien self replicating probe that transports him and his companions across parallel universes and timescapes. While trying to find their way home, they encounter sentient machine encephalons, planets that move at the whims of bio-mechanical nanobots and discover what lies beyond starlight in the void at the edge of the universe. Is Beyond Starlight a true story that hopped a cosmic ride from elsewhere in another parallel universe as Abbey suggests, take a read, your universe will never be the same. "I like to breakdown the barriers between science fiction and reality. As we live within a multiverse filled with the possible, all things become probable." James Abbey |

Book Reviews
Beyond Starlight (and everything else)
I picked up a copy of Beyond Starlight and found it a strange but wonderful blend of science
fiction. A sort of mix of George Orwell and Isaac Asimov meets Mitchu Kaku in a parallel
universe, yes it is that weird. There are several themes running along side of each other in the
book that should not be overlooked. Like the world of bio-mechanical nanoids running
through the two main characters bodies, these little guys are undergoing a process of
evolution and discovering “God”, who in this case is the bodies of the two hosts. Also it is
interesting to note the most dangerous species in all of the Multiverse is none other then
mankind, wouldn't you know! But as it happens such a violent tendency of human beings has
its place and meaning. Especially appealing to this reader was the description of the Genesis
Point and what lies inside this umbilical cord between parallel universes. I await the next
offering of the series.
