The Lost Clan William F Rayer

In the vastness of space there are the Watchers. We have been on there radar for eons. As a doctoral candidate, Hinrik has been studying the ancient monoliths on Easter Island. What he finds will change the very nature of our known universe and our relation with the Family of Man. Back at the Science Institute, HinrikÕs discoveries and a new message from the Obelisk, evolve into mankindÕs first space warp drive. The Alcubierre formula leads to a new space race, one that involves General Schuster. Who will win this race? The future, again, is in orbit around the gas giant, Jupiter. Schuster is prepared to fire nuclear weapons to stop the meeting with another alien race. Is the Family of Man doomed to the xenophobic fears of one man, or, is the Human Race on the verge of a newer and stranger future in their Reach Beyond Tomorrow?
