]]> Comment on Book: Cosmos by Carl Sagan (1980): Great book about science by sf http://classicmoviesandbooks.com/2009/07/11/book-cosmos-by-carl-sagan-1980-great-book-about-science/#comment-3855 sf Mon, 13 Jul 2009 10:24:30 +0000 http://classicmoviesandbooks.com/?p=248#comment-3855 I am presenting a new science fiction writer Romualdas Draksas. His new book „Man.The Awakening“ has just been published. Here is a short presentation of the book. Man—the galaxy’s most fearsome creature, constructed as a unique war machine, who rose up and escaped from his creators and ended up a captive on a planet inhibiting most of his powers. But what were to happen if Humans again found themselves beyond the limits of their incarcerating planet’s effects, and they regained all of the awesome abilities their creators had given them? In other words, what would it mean if they started the process that the other races of the galaxy referred to as “the awakening”? Just as a single rock can suffice to set a lethal avalanche in motion, so can a lone awakened Human be enough to rattle the entire galaxy. http://www.Strategicbookpublishing.com I am presenting a new science fiction writer Romualdas Draksas.

Check out my first and recently released novel, Long Journey to Rneadal. This exciting tale is a romantic action adventure in space and is more about the characters than the technology.
