For the first time in the history of writing, a manuscript-The Orb, the Link and the Library-was launched into space by an extraordinary spaceflight company and brought back to Earth for its readers. By doing this, the author, D. M. Rosewood, hoped to light a spark in the minds of the readers of this exciting space-based science fiction series-those who love an epic journey and possess a thirst for discovery, intrigue and adventure.

Propelled by one revelation after another, The Orb, the Link and the Library is a suspense-filled science fiction, mystery and adventure story of sixteen-year-old Anastasia and her engagement with a powerful alien race known as the Visitors - an engagement filled with intrigue and change, the human kind and the not so human kind of change. Part 2, The Avalanche Clocks, continues Anna's epic journey to save mankind.

Athena's use of her special gifts don't go unnoticed by the Visitors as they take lethal steps to prevent her from interfering in humanity's impending collapse. Pursued and threatened by the Visitors, Anna must make a monumental and morally conflicting choice about Earth's destiny. But it isn't just the future of the human race that's at stake, as Anna learns of an extraordinary secret and the evolution and endangered survival of thousands of planets monitored by the Visitors.
