The Truth Beyond the Sky: Tropical Sci‑Fi

An award-nominated, Tropical Sci‑Fi adventure, The Truth Beyond the Sky is the first book in the Epic of Aravinda trilogy, now available for free.

Synopsis

☄️ What if the key to saving the world was hidden in your mother’s disappearance?

Twelve years after his famous mother vanishes, Zahn discovers an alien artifact that will change his life forever.

A mysterious figure in a shimmering uniform reveals that his discovery is tied to a galactic war against the Vakragha, an ancient species that devours entire stars.

Their only weakness is a mythical Chintamani stone, lost for eons, capable of healing the wounds they cut into space.

Joined by Asha, a sharp-witted technician with secrets of her own, Zahn finds himself at the heart of a mystery reaching back to his mother’s fate. He realizes everything is connected, and the Vakragha are growing a wormhole near his world.

Full of heart-pounding action, jaw-dropping twists, and philosophical depth inspired by the Ra Material, The Truth Beyond the Sky is a self-contained, award-nominated Tropical Sci‑Fi novel and the start of the Epic of Aravinda trilogy.

What the Reviewers Say

“This is a great story…Definitely an amazing adventure for all…The descriptive scenes captivate the imagination and one truly feels a part of the story.”
★ ★ ★ ★ ★
~ River Rose, AudiobookReviewer.com

“Overall I give this book 5 out of 5 stars and the narration 7 out of 5 stars because it was that good. I definitely recommend this book to sci‑fi fans, and if you have any interest in audiobooks, spring for the audio. You won’t regret it.”
~ Katie Harder-schauer

“Crusoe has a talent for putting us beside the hero on this grand journey… integrating deep metaphysical concepts with some very original and creative science fiction.”

~ Austin Bridges, Asst. Director at L/L Research

“…it was tough to look away. What’s really interesting about this book is how multi-layered it is. At its base, this is a book about a boy who is in search of his mother. However it’s so much more than that. Zahn’s story manages to pull from the world around us, while also incorporating elements of mythology and hero epics. This is a coming-of-age story of the highest caliber.“
~ Jessica Nottingham, HopelessBibliophile.com

“Readers of the Law of One (Ra Material) books may find familiar the philosophical thread woven throughout…In my view, that makes this book a rare gem in the genre. I’m not exaggerating when I say that the underlying philosophy of the book, the mythos, shares much in common with the best of metaphysical literature.”
~ Thomas Minderle, Author of Fringe Knowledge for Beginners

“A swift & compelling read! I recommend it if you enjoy science fiction epics.”
~ Michael Coorlim, Galvanic Century series author

“I was immediately drawn in by the vivid descriptions…The author has a knack for fully immersing a reader into the hero’s plight, and I felt like I was hurtling through corridors of light alongside Zahn.”
~ Erica Lane, FantasyBookLane.com
