Holy crap, this book is GREAT!  Any fan of science fiction will drool over this story.  It has conspiracy, sabotage, space travel, time travel, advance technology and a little touch of romance.  Mr. Ahsanuddin created a story that takes you on a roller coaster of intrigue.  It’s full of twists and turns and you are left not knowing who to trust.The book begins with Commander Martin Atkins confronted at a funeral by Starfire Technology Group.  They present Martin and his fellow crew members a temporary opportunity to work on a secret project that would change mankind.  Martin and his best friend Charles Davenport have always longed to reach the stars agree to join the crew of Zenith, the first starship that can travel to distant galaxies.Someone knows about the project though, and does everything in their power to make sure the mission fails.  Martin, Charles and other members of the Starfire Technology Group do everything in their power to protect Zenith and to ensure the mission is a success.  What they eventually realize is that their opponent has more of an advantage than they first thought.  How can they keep Zenith and its crew safe if the cards are stacked against them?This book has a lot of technical terms in it.  For someone like me, who did everything in their power to taking a physics class, you head will spin but Mr. Ahsanuddin did a fantastic job about explaining these concepts without taking away from the story.  The romance portion of the story was underdeveloped.  Yes, people fall in love but it was brushed over.  I wasn’t upset about this fact because the story in general was exciting and very enjoyable.Though Martin and Charles play key roles in the story, there are many other prominent characters.  The reader gets to know a lot about these characters, but it is not information overload.  The story is written smart enough and with a beautiful flow that information is delivered smoothly.  Beware, this book is a To Be Continued.  Don’t let that stop you from reading it though.  I’ll be waiting on pins and needles for the next installment.This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review.
