The Kolumbas Affair

The Kolumbas Affair
By Samuel Blankson

On the night of his twenty-first birthday, Alfias is contacted by a mysterious voice. The voice sets him on the path to release the secret locked up in the Abyss--on the mysterious purple planet, Kolumbas Major. He unknowingly sets in motion a chain reaction of events that will threaten the existence of life in the Universe.

After escaping capture, Alfias teams up with another fugitive; Jonathon, the captain of the Triton--an alien ship. Soon Alfias is entangled in a conspiracy to overthrow the ETCA; the merciless government of the earth colonies.

Will he be stopped by the ETCA's killer telepaths and mercenary black ops teams, or will the ancient Elders get to him first? Both will stop at nothing to prevent him from opening the Abyss on Kolumbas Major. 

Publisher's opinion:

Angela Baker - Immaculate Conception

Blankson painted a picture that I could visualize in my mind’s eye - a quality every writer hopes to convey within the reader of his work. 

Cameron Cowan - Associated-Content.com

“This book is an amazing adventure in a new and dynamic universe that really is unlike anything else currently on the bookshelves of America. For once this book did not remind me of any other books I have read and really presented a new concept for a change, certainly refreshing to say the least. If you are looking for a new, refreshing and exciting adventure then the Kolumbas Affair is the book for you.” 

C.F. Lapinel - THE DIAMOND SPADE

Blankson’s novel is a space odyssey of epic proportions and well worth the read. It seems to reflect much of the political and cultural unease bubbling to a boil in our own time. Another refreshing aspect of Blankson’s novel is how well he captures and renders the ideas, technology and culture of this possible future. For as wild and strange as this future seems, it also has the distinct ring of plausibility. If, as Rod Serling stated, science fiction is the improbable made possible, then Blankson has fulfilled that criteria in spades.
