The Deal
(2025)(The fifth book in the FutureShock: Tales from the Void series)
A Story by Christian Kallias
At 23:59 on December 31st, 2029: Earth changes owners. And its only hope is the man ordered to surrender it.
Humanity’s first lunar base is in chaos. Immediate evacuation orders came without warning. No explanations given, and no time to prepare a controlled evacuation.
Base Commander Jack Smith demands answers, but his friend and Councilman Adam Peterson is bound by an ancient secret older than any nation alive.
A deal made 2,000 years ago is about to come due.
When an alien warlord arrives to collect Earth as his property on New Year’s Eve 2029, Adam is forced into an impossible role: finalize the treaty, sign over the planet… and hope humanity survives as slaves.
But Adam and Jack refuse to abandon their world without a fight.
The ruthless alien warlord who came to claim his ownership of the blue marble never expected any resistance from his future slave word, but he's about to learn that Earth isn’t going down quietly.
Genre: Science Fiction
