The Franklin Saga

What is it about the Franklin dynasty?

Handsome, highly sexed, bright and adventurous, these men (and women) are driven to fly in planes and spacecraft, to slip the surly bonds of Earth and touch the face of the unknown...

Two close friends, Helen and Diana, meet trouble as the year 2000 approaches. Diana succumbs to an illness, and later Helen, married to space ace Bob Franklin, is faced with a momentous asteroid shower that finally puts paid to Earth. Luckily, she and Bob are chosen for an escape probe that sets off into space.

And 1500 years later, another Bob Franklin gets the call to return home to Earth. Who does he find there, and why is it so important for him to stay?

Time shift is one thing, but rekindling a flame after two millennia? The Franklin Saga holds plenty of surprises, a lot of insight, and an abundance of life's miracle ingredient. Read on...
