Description
Rogue Command The premise: The story begins with a catastrophe for mankind - the result of an unexpected, unprecedented and obscene criminal conspiracy. For governments and scientific authorities who have knowledge of the event - for it plays out on a distant moon in our solar system - the repercussions are immense. For more than two decades the world's three largest conglomerates have monopolised the planets supply of minerals, chemicals, pharmaceuticals and cybernetic technology. Spheron, Epsilon Rio and Tongsei Heavy Industries, begin welding their industrial might to further aspirations of controlling perhaps the greatest commodity of all - electricity. For their plans to work they need to secure an operating base free from the restrictions, restraints and potential military repression of the world's governments - a base where they can coordinate illegal and inhuman activates unfettered. There is only one such place - the Moon's fledgling colony, Andromeda. To achieve this ambition, the faceless leaders of the conglomerates, while appearing above the law, instigate a secretive, remorseless and deadly multipronged attack on democracy. In 2054, as the final remnants of Earth's carbon-based fuels are consumed and "green" energy remains hopelessly inadequate, a population of 16 billion people depends almost wholly on electricity produced by three Kalahari crystals (an energy source found on Mars four years earlier - Book 1 - "The Osiris Revelations"). Threatened further by a climatic backlash that has reduced global surface temperatures and curtailed food production, life on the surface is becoming precarious and humankind is looking towards a subterranean existence for survival. Richard James Reece, a reluctant agent for the British Government is recalled from duties on the Moon. His knowledge of the Kalahari crystals and the "old people" is essential and his intervention imperative. But he has a secret of his own. By exposing his past to the world, he risks all that is dear to him: his career and his new life in Andromeda. But only he has the knowledge and the ability to counter the unscrupulous conglomerates. Meanwhile on Mars, Commander Tom Race, a brother in arms, discovers the secrets of mankind's ancestry and possibly a way to stop what seems inevitable - our demise as surface dwellers on planet Earth. Expertly contrived, cleverly written, accurately researched and with galloping pace, "Rogue Command" is a fitting conclusion to the Kalahari adventure.
