They Were Not Gods: A Space-Age Fairytale

By Jerry Hubert

Book Overview

Drawing from the spirit of the Gospels, Frankenstein, and the "ancient astronauts" theories of Erich von D niken, They Were Not Gods: A Space-Age Fair Tale is ultimately about the human spirit in the most universal sense. It is a story of space travel connecting three living beings who felt many of the same feelings we feel, thought many of the same thoughts we think, and asked themselves many of the same questions we find ourselves asking.

Paleface, a young woman from an outer space colony, left her family behind to become an explorer, hoping her efforts would benefit mankind. When everything started to go wrong, she began to question the direction she was taking in life. In a different part of the galaxy, Cros lived a very dull life exploring outer space, until the discovery of a gigantic time capsule sent him on an uncertain voyage into a dangerous new world. Knowing little of life beyond his home planet, Thundercloud often dreamed of traveling in space, but learned to be happy where he was. When his whole world changed, however, he found himself with difficult decisions to make as he watched various intelligent life forms cross paths and collide.
