PIKEVILLE, N.C. - ncarol.com -- In Lost Helix by Scott Coon, humanity has traveled to the stars in generational ships bound for newly terraformed planets and mining facilities. But what happens after the new colonies are established? We find it's not the idealistic world of a better future where humans have evolved. Trapped on a mining asteroid, DJ dreams of a better future. But will that dream be destroyed by corporate greed and space pirates? Lost Helix is the key to intrigue and adventure in deep space.
Lost Helix contains everything both adult and young adult readers want in their science fiction: a bit of melodrama, a bit of realism, a bit of magic, and a lot of escapism. There are confrontations with corporate goons, battles for freedom, and an urgent desire to find the truth. Readers will be swept along on this chase across the galaxy.
