Join us at this event to meet Brick and discuss his latest book; “The Zaphnurr Phase”.
Imagine waiting on the love of your life and soon blindsided when you find out that person has been kidnapped. When Kentil doesn’t arrive home, Sarah searches for him, fails, but is caught by M-Corp agents and is arrested. They accuse her of the failure to apply to give birth to a child. The penalty for this is abortion, carried out by an M-Corp robot doctor. In fear of what other crimes they might charge her with, she escapes and crosses into the forbidden zone, a landscape which turns out to be the start of hope.
Although, not everything is what it seems.
