description: The Princess and the Prophet launches Thomas Henry Quell's new sci-fi trilogy, Guardians of the Light. In the series opener, Quell serves up a fast moving action-adventure tale set in the 28th century, upon a world fifteen thousand light years from Earth. Commander Vernon Shaffer of the Starship Santa Maria battles sword-swinging religious fanatics under the double suns of the planet Abith in search of a priceless techno-access key known as the Crystal Cube. This white-hot story weaves together sci-fi and fantasy, psionic wizardry and deep space battles, with a cast of unforgettable characters. To research his novel, Quell explored European dungeons, climbed castle walls, poured over astronomical texts and Hubble telescope images, and attended WICCA meetings. The result is a sci-fi thriller sizzling with action and great characters. If you're looking for humor, romance and high adventure, The Princess and the Prophet will take you there faster-than-light.
