About this ebook
An asteroid parks on Earth orbit, and Alex Jones is sent to collect samples and figure it out. But the passenger is chatty and his revelations are mind-blowing.

Writer/Director. I enjoy taking ancient Greek myths and turning them into modern sci-fi spooky versions. I also like to write romantic comedies, and people seem to go "Awww!" over them, so why not? Many of my stories are icky, in various ways. I’m European, we have a higher tolerance for that kind of stuff. Plus, I’m inspired by mythology and Shakespeare, so if you can’t handle tragedy and bodily fluids, feel free to move on. My photo has been redrawn by a neural network.

Naturally, they sent two astronauts up there to see what
