About this ebook

The Final Episode in the Gardeners Trilogy

Alex Clark’s honeymoon is interrupted by the re-emergence of Marcus Rogers and his evil band, the Seven Great Families. The group, with the help of a powerful alien nobleman — Ares of Helios — intend to depopulate the Earth and remake what remains in the image of Ares’ home planet, Uor. But Ares’ twin brother, Apollo, is determined to save both Earth and Uor from class-based dictatorships.

Alex and Apollo are both caught in a race against the clock because Rogers has forced a group of noted scientists to develop an Uorian technology into a powerful weapon that will bring the leaders of Earth to their knees. Meanwhile, Apollo has been declared an outlaw on Uor and, reluctantly, becomes the leader of a movement to dismantle a dictatorship that has ruled the planet for thirty thousand years.

Author

Fred McKibben

Fred McKibben is the author of the highly acclaimed Gardeners trilogy, Hot Times in the Garden of Eden, The Salt Castle, and The Carnival Road. The series has been described as suspense with strong elements of science fiction, politics, history, anthropology and romance. The allegorical story is particularly relevant in the current political environment where the rise of strongman rulers portends losses of individual freedom, knowledge growth, and creativity. The full series is also available as a compilation titled Seven Deadly Sinners.In addition to the Gardeners trilogy, Fred has written The Shadow of Death (2016) and Sweet Dreams (2017). Both are murder mysteries featuring Eddie Rose, a semi-retired insurance investigator.Fred lives in Southern Spain with his wife and two dogs. After many years as a finance executive and entrepreneur, he decided to try his hand at writing fiction. A More Perfect Union (expected release in 2019) will be the first of planned series of historical romance novels set in the early United States.
