New Sci-Fi Epic Released

PRISM – Exiles is the latest novel from the pen of Nigel Edwards, author of The Cookie Tin.

Exiles is the story of Luke Adams, a weak individual employed as an English teacher. In the middle of his humdrum life, Luke is transported to a different world. A few hundred other souls are transported with him, pulled into adventure by the simple virtue of their proximity. The catalyst for the transportation is a plate in his skull Luke received following a traffic accident. This plate was manufactured from a metal that contained the most minute of fragments from a machine that was destroyed in a war, a war that took place on a planet an immeasurable distance from Earth. Particles from the machine – which should not be considered as a mere mechanical device – were hurled across the space-time divide, to mingle with the broiling firmament of our nascent planet, later to be mined and incorporated into the medical plate Luke received. However, while the motes were the catalyst, they were not the engineers of the transportation – that was the product of deliberate action – but who those engineers were, what their purpose might be, and what Luke’s involvement might be, is the subject of the tale …

The opening paragraph from the PRISM - Exiles begins:

“Consider this. You are just an ordinary person, with nothing special to set you apart from the crowd. You have no unique skills or talents. You live a mundane life in an ordinary house in the suburbs of a run-of-the-mill town. You may be eighteen or eighty, and immersed in no-ones problems but your own. Then one day your world is turned upside down. You find yourself suddenly thrown together with five hundred other souls, severed from the life you once knew. Gone are the securities of technology, resource, and amenity that you once took for granted. In their place are hardship, uncertainty and fear. Now you must fend for yourself. So ask yourself this – how would you fare?”
