The first humans to set foot on Mars, and yet, for the crew of the Phoenix VII, this was insignificant compared to their true mission: to search the Gorgon crater for alien life. NASA had discovered what they believed to be a hotbed for bacteria and now they could settle the debate once and for all. Not knowing what to expect the crew had only their data to guide them and notions of what extraterrestrial organisms might look like. But will they manage to succeed when the unpredictability of the universe sets in? 

NEW AUTHOR

STEVEN WEBB

Born in Chandler, Arizona in 1989. He grew up in Phoenix where his imagination flourished while reading indoors to escape the long hot summers. His love of animals then took him to Colorado where he studied animal biology at Colorado State University all with the dream of one day becoming a Veterinarian. It was at this school that he first envisioned the concept for this book. He fell in love with the state and all of its beauty, making it hard for him to leave. Realizing that moving back home was the change he needed, he packed up and move into an apartment with his dog, Lunette. Being able to live on his own and the change of scenery inspired him to finally set to work on his first book when he wasn’t busy helping foster group home children through his job at OCJ Kids.
