So, an Australian AND a Brazilian Space Elevator, what’s not to like? \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n And, as noted above, there is a Prequel coming out in November.\u00a0 The Trilogy has received many favorable reviews on Amazon and I’m looking forward to reading it.\u00a0 As it is set in the twenty-third century, I don’t know how much the story will match up with what is currently considered the most feasible way to build a space elevator, but the author did state in an interview,<\/a> \u201cI needed somewhere reasonably close to the equator for the physics of a space elevator to work<\/em>\u201d so he has been paying attention.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"\/media\/TheDarwinElevatorCover.png\")
<\/a>Part 1 – The Darwin Elevator<\/a><\/strong>: In the mid-23rd century, Darwin, Australia, stands as the last human city on Earth. The world has succumbed to an alien plague, with most of the population transformed into mindless, savage creatures. The planet\u2019s refugees flock to Darwin, where a space elevator\u2014created by the architects of this apocalypse, the Builders\u2014emits a plague-suppressing aura.<\/em>

\nSkyler Luiken has a rare immunity to the plague. Backed by an international crew of fellow \u201cimmunes,\u201d he leads missions into the dangerous wasteland beyond the aura\u2019s edge to find the resources Darwin needs to stave off collapse. But when the Elevator starts to malfunction, Skyler is tapped\u2014along with the brilliant scientist, Dr. Tania Sharma\u2014to solve the mystery of the failing alien technology and save the ragged remnants of humanity.<\/em><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"\/media\/TheExodusTowersCover.png\")
<\/a>Part 2 – The Exodus Towers<\/a><\/strong>: The sudden appearance of a second space elevator in Brazil only deepens the mystery about the aliens who provided it: the Builders. Scavenger crew captain Skyler Luiken and brilliant scientist Dr. Tania Sharma have formed a colony around the new Elevator\u2019s base, utilizing mobile towers to protect humans from the Builders\u2019 plague. But they are soon under attack from a roving band of plague-immune soldiers. Cut off from the colony, Skyler must wage a one-man war against the new threat as well as murderous subhumans and thugs from Darwin\u2014all while trying to solve the puzzle of the Builders\u2019 master plan . . . before it\u2019s too late for the last vestiges of humanity.<\/em><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"\/media\/ThePlagueForgeCover.png\")
<\/a>Part 3 – The Plague Forge<\/a><\/strong>: The hunt is on for the mysterious keys left by the alien Builders. While Skyler\u2019s team of immune scavengers scatters around the disease-ravaged globe in search of the artifacts, Skyler himself finds much more than he expected in the African desert, where he stumbles upon surprising Builder relics\u2014and thousands of bloodthirsty subhumans. From the slums and fortresses of Darwin to the jungles of Brazil and beyond, Skyler and company are in for a wild ride, jam-packed with daunting challenges, run-and-gun adventure, and unexpected betrayals\u2014all in a race against time to finally answer the great questions that have plagued humanity for decades: Who are the Builders, and what do they want with Earth?<\/em><\/p>\n
