The Island on the Edge of Forever

Start here. Asha's journey begins now.

When Asha accepts a mission to recover a stone that can raise the dead, she's pulled into a world of ghostly ruins, cave-dwelling vermin, and a mysterious island that burns with bonfires each night-only to vanish by morning.

Separated from Commander Mira, Asha must survive the island and race against the Vakragha before they can use the sacred stone to resurrect their most dangerous leader.

Meanwhile, Zahn leads a daring expedition into a subterranean labyrinth that may hold the key to stopping them... but only if Asha succeeds.

As Asha's plans unravel, the full burden of the mission shifts to her, and she must brave the deadly vermin within the caves, alone. With the fate of worlds hanging in the balance, Asha's courage and ingenuity are her only hope.

Fast-paced, tropical, and imaginative, this action-packed sci-fi adventure can be read on its own or as the next thrilling chapter in the complete Epic of Aravinda trilogy.

What Reviewers Say... "I really enjoyed this book and was impressed by its Miyazaki-level imaginative flair. The vivid way Crusoe painted the landscapes and inhabitants of the Island of Forever stuck with me... He interweaves just the right amount of spiritual levity and philosophy throughout, in a way that serves the plot rather than vice versa. I eagerly anticipate the next one." -- Tom Minderle, Author of 'Fringe Knowledge for Beginners' "In today's vast sea of self-publishing, discovering this much intelligence, original thought, and imagination is a rare treat...I'm already impatient for the third book!" -- Flavia Westermann, Reviewer "The author's prose is smooth and rhythmic...with layers of meaning and complexity for those who care to look." -- Michael Coorlim (Galvanic Century series author)

"It's not often that I treat myself to fiction books, but reading 'The Island on the Edge of Forever' was so exciting that I didn't want to put it down. The journey Crusoe takes us on is imaginative, bringing new worlds to life before my eyes...I can't wait to continue." -- Billy Horn, Amazon Reviewer "I have almost 1,500 SciFi books on my Kindle...This one sticks out from the rest...It was an exciting read that left me wanting more." -- BookWormy, Amazon Reviewer "If you want to take a fast trip through the galaxy to an enchanted island somewhere far away, this book is for you. This book has it all!" -- Lamar Renville, Amazon Reviewer
