Children of the Origin Project

by Asa Rubin

Overview

Lifelong foster kids Jake Pham, Alex Garcia, and Sarah Powell have never had much control over their lives. But after they find a crashed spaceship in the forest with a dying giant inside, they are faced with a choice that will decide their destinies forever.

In his last moments, the giant transfers his knowledge and secrets to them. A war is being fought among the stars, and they have been tasked with completing his final mission to save his people. But it's not an easy decision whether to stay or go. Joining the war means going up against a murderous regime and its demon-like supersoldiers. But if they do nothing, not only will they be condemning a civilization of trillions, they will be risking an invasion of Earth itself.

About the Author

Asa Rubin grew up reading classic adventure authors like Jules Verne, sci-fi/action novelists like Clive Cussler, and more literary story-tellers like Richard Russo. As he started to write himself, he discovered that he enjoyed combining all of his favorite genres together, so that his stories often had plenty of action, extensive sci-fi, and a healthy dose of psychological or philosophical musings to go along with them.

In between writing, he has received degrees in physics, aerospace engineering, and medicine, practiced as a physician, and even done some work for the government. These experiences he’s sunken back into his stories to make them more realistic. He has also climbed a few mountains, gotten hardcore into ultralight backpacking, and most importantly, married his beautiful wife. They currently live in Florida with their cat, Mulder.

Editorial Reviews

It's a great book with awesome world building that contains not only richly developed details, but also well-thought metaphysical exploration. The main character and many supporting characters are nuanced and complicated. I look forward to the next book of the series. Highly recommend!
