AD ASTRA PER ASPERA

About the Book

AD ASTRA PER ASPERA.  The second book of the Hoille/Nuttall trilogy .

Lord Pennywort was having to question his loyalties; to his alien friends whom he had served since his abduction in 1666, or to his new friends Vicky and Trevor who he greatly admired. Could he work with both to find a way forward and help the Earth find a new stability?
The Earth was in turmoil following the ravages of plague; the population was decimated; utilities greatly diminished, and looting and riots were frequent.
Vicky and Trevor were hoping that Lord Pennywort, with his powers, would work with the nations left to bring back some stability,but would this all be too much opening the way for the Siriusians to move to Earth? Would it end Trevor andVicky's hopes of going, Ad Astra, to the stars.
This book is not just science fiction, it has love and romance,wickedness and murder, warmth and laughter and a good sprinkling of suspense.
It will make the reader sit up and take notice; it is close to the truth!
