My Review

Space cowboys, an asteroid, aliens, wormholes, time travel, and indians! never a dull moment here.

Add in a billionaire, a washed out wannabe astronaut, a sexy rival teammate, and things get bumpy pretty quick.

How could I resist this one. I watched the movie, Space Cowboys and Aliens, and really enjoyed it. So, I couldn’t pass this up. Right from the start I liked the characters, the back and forth humor and sarcasm, the romantic teasing, and the bets they make.

Once this team lands on the asteroid and discovers they aren’t alone, things happen quickly. They end up going through a worm hole and come out on Earth in the 1800s. As they try to figure out how to get home to their present time again, they must make friendly with the indians and fight off an extremely dangerous alien.

Strap on your six shooter, pilgrim. From the present to the 1800s, this book shoots you into action and dribbles humor throughout, keeping you laughing and dodging bullets, arrows, and acid spitting aliens.

4 Stars

Synopsis

How can the chance of a lifetime go so horribly wrong? Mining Engineer Cole Hudson signed up for NASA astronaut training, but after washing out short of getting his gold wings, he retreats to Alaska where he stakes out a gold claim. When billionaire entrepreneur Duncan Janson offers him an opportunity to join a mining team on an asteroid, Cole jumps at the chance. But nothing is as it seems. Former NASA reject and rival classmate, Tessa Hernandez, is also a member of the team, and from the beginning of the mission test flight, things go wrong. They soon discover they’re not the only ones on the asteroid. As they try to escape, they are pulled through a wormhole and back to the early 1800s New Mexico desert where aliens and Apaches may be the least of their problems.

My Teaser from page 29 in the Paperback.

There was no way they were alone in the universe that stretched out before them. Impossible.

“To boldy go – ” Cole began, only to be cut off by Tessa.

“Stop right there. Twenty dollars in the kitty for any Star Trek reference.”

“That’s not shiny – ” Cole retorted.

“One hundred dollars for Firefly,” Tessa replied.

“She sucks the fun out of everything,” Cole said to Noah.

“She has her moments,” Noah smiled.

Read on if you want to know more.
