Book Cover & Preview Text
A new chapter in the history of Arcadia and ultimately Earth, was about to unfold. Colin felt their anxiety and concerns, on one hand he himself was worried and anxious about what the outcome may be for him and Michael, but on the other hand he felt a true sense of pride in both himself and Michael of the level of trust and confidence that the Arcadians had placed in them and the expectations and challenges before them. During the walk, Colin peered to his left and noticed that the Arcadian council had massed and were watching him and Michael from an adjoining building. Colin stopped and took the time to look out the window and directed his gaze at the council. Michael came to him and asked if he was ok, he also noticed the council watching them. Was this their leap of faith? "Dad, we cant stop now. We have to consider mum and Laura back on Earth, we are not only doing this for them, but ourselves and humanity as well".

About the Book
When Colin awakens from a mysterious coma bearing strange symmetrical wounds and traces of an unknown green substance, his life—and humanity’s fate—take a dramatic turn. What begins as a story of survival becomes an interstellar journey of discovery after Colin encounters the Arcadians, an advanced alien race struggling to save their dying planet. Through an artifact known as The Orb, Colin gains access to unimaginable knowledge and technology that could alter the course of human civilization. As he grapples with the moral and existential consequences of his newfound power, Colin is forced to confront not only hostile alien forces but also humanity’s own fear, greed, and reluctance to change. With the fate of two worlds hanging in the balance, The Orb explores what happens when enlightenment collides with corruption—and whether knowledge truly brings salvation or destruction. Blending science fiction, suspense, and human emotion, The Orb delves deep into the timeless questions of identity, progress, and our place in the universe.
