    An alien, Tashan Zho, on a rescue mission to the distant planet Earth is transported into the dying body of bootlegger Ryan Costello. Upon his death, Costello’s body is reanimated by the alien, and endowed with supernatural powers. Unfortunately, the body is so damaged from years of alcohol abuse that the alien’s memory and his vital files are corrupted. All that remains of his mission plan is one phrase: “Find the one called Mike Kelly.” Complicating matters, the alien soon discovers that Kelly is the leader of a criminal gang of World War veterans, who are battling mobster Jack "Legs” Diamond for control of the lucrative Canada/New York rum-running market. Upon recognizing Costello's enhanced abilities and physical strength, Kelly forces the alien into the mob. Since Kelly is his only chance of discovering and completing his mission, the alien agrees.  Zho, in the body of Costello, soon learns his crucial task - to rescue a child from the infamous Craig Colony before his planet dispatches an armada so massive that its mere entry into the atmosphere would devastate the Earth. 
    The story, a mashup of historical fiction, science fiction, and fantasy, is set in upstate New York during prohibition. The fictional characters interact with actual historical figures, including mobster Jack "Legs” Diamond, heavyweight champ Jack Dempsey, and World War hero Edith Cavell.

    My Best Science Fiction Bundle -...

    I have setup this series that includes the sci-fy version of my concept as well as the non-fictional version that followed because after completing the Book to End All Books, I realized there had to be one more book that describes the science behind my concept of creating a 2nd sun in the sky by igniting the planet Jupiter using laser technology we now know how to create a nuclear fusion reactor in the lab. 
    But, by using this technology as well as our new-fangled rocket ships made possible by Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Richard Branson as well as NASA, ESA etc, it is now a much closer reality that we can save our planet by taking our know-how into space and accomplishing something that has never been done by any other living things anywhere in the universe as far as we can tell. One this is for sure, this event puts humanity on the Astronomy maps of all other life forms around the galaxy if they are actually out there watching and measuring space as we are. 
    This is a completely original and new idea both in fiction and non-fiction as far as I can tell. 
    The follow-up book: ‘The Jupiter Sun – The Greatest Achievement in Human History’ – was published immediately after this one because I realized that the science that I had uncovered in this book could be accomplished by Humans, but it had to be moved up to a much faster schedule due to the urgent situation that we are in as a species. If we don't find a second source of free, clean, sustainable, renewable and infinite power and pipe it back to the Earth as well as to Mars, we could become extinction as well as cause the extinction of all other life on the Earth due to our continued addiction to fossil fuels, the source of green house gases and the destruction of our atmosphere. 
    The other thing that should be remembered is that in the history of Science, most of the time, the big advances come not from the intentional research that is done, but by accident and serendipity.

    "It is the horrible texture of a fabric that should be woven of ships' cables and hawsers. A Polar wind blows through it, and birds of prey hover over it."    So Melville wrote of his masterpiece, one of the greatest works of imagination in literary history. In part, Moby-Dick is the story of an eerily compelling madman pursuing an unholy war against a creature as vast and dangerous and unknowable as the sea itself. But more than just a novel of adventure, more than an encyclopaedia of whaling lore and legend, the book can be seen as part of its author's lifelong meditation on America. Written with wonderfully redemptive humour, Moby-Dick is also a profound inquiry into character, faith, and the nature of perception.
