The Anomaly

Craig A. Falconer

I guess saving the world once wasn't enough … 
First it was the auroras, lighting up Europe every night. 
Then came the weird clouds over Africa. 
The tidal shifts … the failing crops … the crazy changes to animal migration … 
And I think all of this is just the start. 
I don't buy the official line that these are natural occurrences. 
Not anymore. Not since a whistleblower hid a coded message in my invitation for an upcoming commemoration ceremony on The Vita. 
Now I know the truth—that Earth is in serious danger from the side-effects of their reckless research. 
Since the moment I found out, I’ve known what I have to do. 
Three years ago, I went into space and almost died saving the world from a madman’s evil plan. 
When I made it home, I swore I'd never leave my family behind again. 
But to make sure we'll still have a planet to call home in another three years, I have to go back. 
And this time, they're coming with me …
