Description
Otherworld Bound is an adventure set in the near future at a time when space travel is still a dream for Earth. Greg Cordell, a young nuclear electronics scientist befriends a supply clerk co-worker who knows more about scientific things than a clerk should know, and who turns out to have special abilities.
United National, a worldwide corporation that controls all activity on the planet has replaced the old United Nations and brought a measure of stability to the planet. Now the government is global; and, unknown to the masses, is being infiltrated by aliens. When Cordell starts inquiring about a fugitive scientist from twenty years earlier, the government comes after him.
Rescued by the Others, a breakaway group from Titan striving to live in peace, Greg is taken to various sites in the solar system while continuing to develop products to help people get away safe. Their only hope is to get as many as they can to some other world where they can live without tyranny. The developments they use to defend themselves prove a challenge for the alien government that is set to stop them at all costs. The intrigue and adventure of rescuing Nora Landers, Greg's romantic interest, and others from Earth proves to keep the reader anxiously waiting for the next development while the Others pursue their goal to be Otherworld Bound.
