Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine condition. NOT a library discard Ilustrador. Hudson, Wisconsin: Final Mission Publishing, 2006. Signed by Jerome Linus German directly on the title page. SIGNED copies are SCARCE. Also signed twice by his wife, Patricia, to whom the book is dedicated. In addition to her autographs, she has written a brief explanation of the mistake that required the top inch of the title page to be neatly cut away (no print is lost). Condition is otherwise FINE. Appears unread. Sharp corners. Pages are fresh, crisp, clean and unmarked -- obviously never read. Bound in the original black laminated boards, with full color illustrations front and back. From the publisher: "Though this is J. L. German's first published novel, it is certainly not his first story. The books fluid style, flesh and blood characters, and gripping plot attest to a lifetime of story telling. The author's fascination with the work of John Paul II (i.e. THE THEOLOGY OF THE BODY), indeed, his enthusiasm for life, is evident from cover to cover of this spiritual epic. Though the book could be accurately termed science fiction, by nature of the fact that it is a futuristic tale, its similarity with much of the rest of the genre ends there. Set early in the 22nd century, the reader enters a world timidly perched on the threshold of star travel, a world beckoned by a recently discovered radio signal from the Alpha Centauri system. As Earth gears up for its first star voyage, the speculation begins. Are the inhabitants of this distant world humanoid? Is their world a paradise, or are they a fallen race? What kind of civilization grows up in paradise? What would an innocent race gain by developing radio technology? And what would they make of us? Of clothing? Of weapons? Of greed and lust? And, if they are fallen, did Christ die to save them as well? Is the Church's mission interplanetary? Interstellar? Galactic? German juggles these questions via unforgettable characters cast in extraordinary circumstance -- an unprecedented crossroad. If sci fi and Christian dogma do not seem an odd mix, add the fact that very little sci fi has a woman as its main character. ONE LIKE US bridges the sci fi gender gap with the ordinary but extraordinary, humble but bold, Veronica Weslin, who brings beauty and romance to an often too techy, too horror-driven genre. But don't worry guys; this is rounded-out sci fi, not watered-down. German's inventive bent lends gritty, fig-leafless detail to the intrigue and adventure that make it a page turner from cover to cover.". Signed by Jerome Linus German. 1st ed?
