Return to Alpha: The Beta-Earth Chronicles, Book Six by Wesley Britton
Forty years in the future, planet Earth suffers from horrendous climate changes due to global warming, and survivors are recovering from waves of decimating plagues from uncontrollable biological weapons. A strange spaceship lands on a Jamaican beach carrying six aliens, as Dr. Malcolm Renbourn’s journey reaches a thrilling conclusion.
Renbourn, the only man to have lived on three Earths in the multi-verse, began his astounding flight in The Blind Alien when he was unwittingly transferred to a parallel Earth and forced to adapt to new cultures and a new language. In The Blood of Balnakin, Tribe Renbourn traveled to a new continent, where even stranger adventures awaited. When War Returns caught Tribe Renbourn in a brewing war. A Throne for an Alien found Tribe Renbourn on the run and preparing for a final showdown. The Third Earth forced to them to cross the multi-verse once again, this time as outcasts in a strange world.
Now, how will our future generation react to the unexpected awareness that our planet shares cosmic space with at least two other earths?
Return to Alpha is the sixth and final book in the critically-praised Beta-Earth Chronicles series.
Immerse yourself in an extraordinary universe revealed by the most original storytelling you'll ever experience. Science fiction yes, but so much more . . . a story with a highly original concept, fascinating characters, and not-too-subtle but truthful allegories. Don't let the sci-fi label or alternate Earth setting fool you—this is a compelling and contemporarily relevant story about race, sex, and social classes." -Raymond Benson, Former James Bond novelist and author of the Black Stiletto books
"An excellent work of new SF that hearkens back to the classics of Asimov and Heinlein. Told from the viewpoints of the different characters, it is a tale of a man from our earth (Alpha) being unwittingly transferred to a parallel earth (Beta) where he must learn to adapt to new cultures, attitudes, languages at the same time as coming to grips with the loss of his sight. Each of the characters are fully developed and well defined and being able to hear their thoughts about each encounter brings a richness to the narratives. Politics, religion, social mores and relationships are all examined from both without and within. Think Stranger in a Strange Land combined with Foundation and you may begin to get an idea of the scope and quality of this adventure."
- Dave Massengale, Amazon review
“Spymaster and imaginative author, Dr. Wesley Britton has another big hit! His book takes the reader on a compelling journey of an Alpha earthling who has been spirited to planet Beta. Science-fiction, yes, but much more. The book explores science, medicine, commerce, education, spiritual life, family life and sex on an alternative planet which at times is insightful and hilarious in its comparison to our own Earth. In an ingenious way, Dr. Britton has created a new grammar and vocabulary to continually intrigue the reader. A true winner!"
- Bobbi Chertok, Amazon Review
“This is the first book of a series where Robinson Crusoe meets Fringe in a parallel Universe dominated by women because of a disease that kills 3 to 1 the males who are born."
