    “It’s a science fiction novel that breaks free from traditional sci-fi themes and explores new worlds while attempting to maintain some level of scientific integrity. It mixes drama and suspense with a scientific twist. It introduces thought-provoking themes that leave the readers emotionally involved as they weave through a tangled web of intrigue both on earth and in space.”

    When a surgery on a brain tumor results in an unimageable result where the patient ends up with super mental powers, including the ability to communicate telepathically, retain information with a photographic memory, and develop the ability to multi process. the doctor has unknowingly created the XLs.

    The doctor successfully replicates the process on two additional patients at which point he goes public and announces his success.

    Consequently, he becomes the target of computer industry moguls who see him as a threat because of his claim that these new super mental powers will eliminate the need for computers and cell phones.

    The doctor is subsequently murdered and the XLs (the individuals with the super brain powers) make a run for it, hiding out in Peru.

    In the meantime, one of the XLs has made contact with alien life forms on another planet and they plan a visit to the earth.

    The aliens arrive and find it difficult to communicate verbally with anyone. They prefer to communicate with the XLs.

    The aliens get excited about resources that they discovered on the earth, and which are in short supply on their home plant. They immediately go to work mining the earth.

    One XL is captured and held hostage because of the Aliens’ fascination with the XLs capabilities, and they want to find the other XLs and take them back to their home planet for study.

    Will the XLs end up on an alien planet? Do the aliens leave or do they rape the earth of resources?
