Children of the Crisp

By Paul S. Brittain

Book Overview

Concluding the saga of The Crisp, Children of The Crisp follows the only remaining human beings from the doomed planet Earth to their next frontier. Guided by an artificial being and the ship?s sassy navigational computer, forty-seven children search for a new home even as their home planet disintegrates in sun fire behind them. Confined aboard the ship at length, this is their story. Readers will laugh and cry, sometimes at once, as a future society hurtles towards an unknown destiny. Once again we are reminded of the saga?s prevailing theme. "The future is always about the children."

I can't wait to read "Children of the Crisp"

As the final few are awaiting the last day - you find yourself caught up in the race against time with Arnold Mason and his crew. This book allows you to become a part of the struggle of mankind; to become a part of the decisions that must be made; and to question your own self as to what choices you would make to ensure survival of the human race. You know and love the children that are destined to become the future of mankind. You laugh, cry, and form bonds with the characters of this book. I look forward to reading about the children and their survival in the next book!!

The Hope of the "Crisp"

Hurling towards the final apocalypse, of mankind's own creation, earth's race against time is led by Professor Arnold Mason. The course of earth's journey has already been mapped, but Professor Mason and his followers are mapping their own course for the future of the human race - found in the face of a child. The fast paced, tight, novelette, with surprising twists, reflects the urgent need to "shield" the "children" from the terrible fate of the "crisp" by propelling them towards a New World. I eagerly look forward to the next book in the series, where the children begin a new life.

SAVE THE CHILDREN!!!

In 2211 a nucleon war cripples the earth, altering it's orbit and placing it on a deadly collision course with the sun. The resulting conflict causes unprecedented catastrophes around the globe. The oceans gradually evaporate leaving vast deserts in their place. As the planet drifts ever closer to the sun, incidents of skin cancer have escalated to epic proportions, spawning a devastating disease known as the Crisp. Arnold Mason and several other top scientists from around the world race against time to build and launch a space craft carrying Earth's last remnant, it's children. Paul Brittian's novel is chilling reminder about hope in the face of ultimate destruction.
