When Ethan Finch finds himself running from the law, a stranger from another planet offers him a chance to begin anew. Abandoning his cruel father and taking with him only a dream, Ethan journeys to Embra, a secret and ancient world of technology and mystery.
Having always wanted a purpose, Ethan is thrust into an academy for planetary exploration. Finally, he has friends, studies aliens, joins an anti-gravity racing team, and battles in a virtual fighting arena. But fun and games are fleeting when he faces impending exile, a corporate conspiracy, a killer robot, and a dying goddess.
But worst of all, Ethan must unearth a deep-rooted regret that has forever haunted him. Can he climb for his future before his time is up, or will fate force him back down to Earth?
Hey! I’m Christopher, or Chris if you like. I am a British writer from leafy Surrey here in the UK. I am the author of Everscape: The Wings of Embra, a science-fiction fantasy adventure for young adults, and Adam & the Goat, an urban-fantasy action-comedy, perhaps a little more for the adults. Both novels are available at Amazon. Check them out!
I have many projects currently in the works, including my newest novel, The Chocolate Prince, a dramedy set in the exciting city of London. I am currently seeking literary representation for this novel. If you are an agent or have connections, I would love to hear from you!
As for my favourite authors, I adore the works of Michelle Paver, Joanne Harris, Phillip Pullman, Madeline Miller, Jennifer Saint, Derek Farrell, Christopher Paolini, Andrew Sean Greer, and of course the big ones: Rowling, King, Gaiman, Martin, and Tolkien. You’re all so talented!
This story is a very unique story. I can honestly say I have not read anything like it before. I very much enjoyed the story line and getting to watch ethan grow and learn in this story. Ethan proves if you reach for it you can achieve it.
