Saving Static

In an era of humanity’s expansion across the stars, Castor and his extraordinary partner Jist, an illegal lifeform with unique abilities, embark on a daring mission: the removal of a perilous moon. Their quest leads them to the notorious prison planet ‘Paradise,’ where Master Quillion, the sole expert capable of executing the complex and outlawed procedure, languishes for a past lunar disaster.

Escaping Paradise’s iron grip is merely the first hurdle for the intrepid duo. Hunted relentlessly by Paradise Planet security eager to recapture their fugitive, and pursued by ‘Tracer,’ an AI Homorph from the Office of Illegal Lifeforms (OIL) determined to ensnare and reprogram Jist, Castor and his companion must navigate a treacherous path through the cosmos. Their search for the indispensable mining engineer Cormand, the only lieutenant Quillion trusts, intensifies, unaware that Cormand may harbor a thirst for vengeance against Quillion for the loss of his family in the previous cataclysm.

Amidst the vastness of space, Castor and Jist’s destinies intertwine, teetering on the edge of survival as they confront the perils of their mission and the ghosts of the past.

Paul Waterman was born in London during the swinging sixties. Grew up to attend college in engineering but worked mostly in property development. Became semi retired and moved to Ventnor on the Isle of Wight in the twenty-tens. With life now a little less hectic he was able to make use of more leisure time for cycling and walking and pursued neglected hobbies, such as leaded glass work, wood-working and of course writing.
