About this ebook
WWI, called by so many "The Great War", was hoped to be the War to End All Wars. Millions of lives ended in new and ever-more violent ways on its battlefields. Thousands more brought home memories that left them little more than walking wounded. One such man was Dr. Colwyn Rhys-Myers, newly-returned to his native Wales, back to his small-town medical-practice, and looking to leave the horrors of the conflict behind. For him, the War might have been over, had not the catalyst for an interplanetary adventure such as no man or woman had seen before followed him home. His love was his homeland, his solace his solitude, but his destiny was beyond the stars.

Iain S. Walsh is an immensely unsuccessful musician by trade whose credits are legion, and triumphs are few. (He's also not too certain about this whole "referring to himself in the third-person" thing. It's a bit creepy.) He has scored a hit on FM radio (if you count a “hit” as a song having been played twice on a downstate Illinois college-radio station in 1989), co-managed an intriguingly obscure recording-studio (Park Bench Productions: 1986-1994), spent two summers as the Music Director and Resident Composer for a Northern Illinois Shakespeare Festival (Shakespeare on the Green: 1994-1995), and been in numerous bands, some of whom actually got paid, and one that might possibly have opened for The Allman Brothers in 2003 if everything had worked out. (It didn’t.) He has also been an actor for thirty-plus years on-stage and in film, and only been booed off the stage once or twice. (It is very difficult to boo someone off the screen.) People keep telling him he should write. Perhaps they’re just trying to keep him off the street. Now, with his first novel on Smashwords (okay, his first novel anywhere), you get to decide which is the truth.
