Five hundred years into the future, Serendipity has undergone profound changes. The climate is altered, and so are its inhabitants. Augmented humans enhanced with artificial intelligence implants now dominate society, while a dwindling number of natural humans struggle to find their place. Tensions escalate between these two groups until an unforeseen crisis threatens them all.
In the seventh installment of the Foothold series, explore a world where the line between humanity and technology blurs, and where survival depends on overcoming deep-seated differences. Can the people of Serendipity unite against the looming threat, or will their divisions lead to their downfall?
Dennis Ingram was born in 1963 and developed an insatiable appetite for anything relating to rockets and space, and needless to say followed the Apollo program with a passion. He read every science fiction book in his local library, growing up on a diet of Andre Norton, E. E. 'Doc' Smith, Clifford D. Simak, Robert Heinlein, Isaac Asimov, Arthur C. Clark and other iconic science fiction authors. He wrote science fiction stories in school notebooks when he was a boy, but as he grew up he put those away and switched to writing in computer languages instead. He kept reading though, hundreds and hundreds of books, especially science fiction, and never stopped dreaming. One day, he started to write those dreams down.
It seemed a little dry at first, but as you got to know the characters, it was like a ship picking up momentum. The scope of this story rivals L. Ron Hubbard's writings. Don't believe me? I have read volumes 1 through 6, and just had to stop and rate the series. Excellent work and difficult at times no doubt. I will be recommending this series to friends. I will close with the best compliment I can give to either a chef or an author-----" More? Please? " Bill Hodges
