The Foundry

By: Mauldin, J. Fitzpatrick

Beware the helping hand. What it offers may not be what we expect.

It is near the end of the 21st century. Persistent war, overpopulation, and climate change have caused poverty and natural disasters like mankind has never known. When a signal offering assistance reaches Earth from an alien entity calling itself The Foundry, humanity plans a mission to the stars for first contact.

Milo Hughes is just another five-year-old boy who wishes for nothing more than to doodle with crayons and dig in the dirt, but his parents are secretly plotting to join the mission-whether they were invited or not.

Twenty years to the Foundry, and twenty years back. If they can survive.

Not part of the mission plan, and living in the shadow of world-class scientists obsessed with their work, Milo will have to grow up and find his own path. His own purpose.

Can the Foundry help him? Can it help humanity?

When Milo comes face-to-face with the mysterious entity, he alone will be able to answer these questions. His survival, and all of humanity, depends on it.
