Synopsis "The Island on the Edge of Forever (in English)"
When Asha accepts a mission to recover a stone capable of raising the dead, the price is higher than she ever imagined. The inhabitants are ghostlike. The Zha worms threaten her at every turn. And a scar torn into the island itself has an ancient secret. After Asha and her commander Mira are dragged into the planet's wild ocean, she barely manages to escape a vast underwater complex. Once she reaches the surface, she discovers a mysterious island that comes to life with dancing villagers and roaring bonfires every night, only to vanish without a trace each morning, leaving her feeling alone and confused. Meanwhile, Zahn has taken Oonak's ship on a mission to a subterranean labyrinth where Vayuna says he will be needed, learning more about the Vakragha than he ever could have imagined. Yet there are greater struggles ahead for both of them. Having followed Asha, the vicious Vakragha are desperate to find the stone first, bent on using it to revive their greatest mastermind. And when Asha finds Mira on the verge of death, the full burden of the mission falls on her shoulders. Time is running out, and Asha must rely on her courage, intuition, and healing skills to have any hope of survival. But she soon discovers that the Vakragha aren't the only ones searching desperately for the sacred stone....

"I really enjoyed this book and was impressed by its Miyazaki-level imaginative flair. The vivid way Crusoe painted the landscapes and inhabitants of the Island of Forever stuck with me. Further, he interweaves just the right amount of spiritual levity and philosophy throughout, in a way that serves the plot rather than vice versa." -- Tom Minderle, Author of 'Fringe Knowledge for Beginners' "In today's vast sea of self-publishing, discovering this much intelligence, original thought, and imagination is a rare treat...I'm already impatient for the third book!" -- Flavia Westermann, Amazon Reviewer "The author's prose is smooth and rhythmic...with layers of meaning and complexity for those who care to look." -- Michael Coorlim (Galvanic Century series author) "It's not often that I treat myself to fiction books, but reading 'The Island on the Edge of Forever' was so exciting that I didn't want to put it down. The journey Crusoe takes us on is imaginative, bringing new worlds to life before my eyes...I can't wait to continue." -- Billy Horn, Amazon Reviewer "I have almost 1,500 SciFi books on my Kindle...This one sticks out from the rest...It was an exciting read that left me wanting more." -- BookWormy1, Amazon Reviewer "If you want to take a fast trip through the galaxy to an enchanted island somewhere far away, this book is for you. This book has it all!" -- Lamar Renville, Amazon Reviewer
