The Garden World

By Mr. Dale A Porter

Three and a half billion years ago, Earth was not humanity's home. It was forbidden.

Protected by Ancient Law, Earth was a sacred garden world filled with oceans, forests, storms, and wild creatures. No cities were allowed on its surface. No machines. No armies. No advanced human life. Earth belonged to no empire, no king, and no people. It was guarded by The Keeper, the God who commanded that the living world remain untouched.

But beyond Earth, humanity had already risen. Mars was a living world of order, temples, oceans, science, and powerful space travel. Phaeton, the shining planet between Mars and Jupiter, was rich, proud, and hungry for expansion. Both worlds knew Earth was forbidden, but not everyone believed the law should still be obeyed.

When a secret mission from Phaeton lands on Earth, the oldest law in the solar system is broken. Mars moves to stop them before The Keeper brings judgment, but fear, pride, and ambition begin to spread across both worlds. What begins as one hidden act of defiance soon threatens to become a war between planets.

The Garden World is Book One of The Forbidden Earth Trilogy, a mythic science fiction saga about sacred law, lost civilizations, forbidden worlds, and the first steps toward humanity's forgotten beginning on Earth.
