This is a very compelling story. The characters are engaging and the writer's perspective fascinating. For those who enjoy hard science fiction this will fit that role. For those who enjoy compelling human drama this will also fit. No matter what this one is worth looking into.

Orale, Latina! Boldly going! Sounds fun. Will be glad to join you on this adventure!

I will definitely be pre-ordering this book. Hilburn presents a unique storyline, based in the theory that archaeological finds are linked to space exploration, and anchors the reader with a gripping opening. Can't wait to see what else Hilburn has in store!
