Drop
By: G. S. Dunn
After recovering Earth from decades of neglect, humanity aims at reaching out into the galaxy to make new friends. Advanced nanotechnology is put to work in one of their greatest feats to date - the Drop base. Built into a crater on the dark side of the moon, this portal will be humanity's key to reaching for other stars.
In an unknown disturbance during a Drop test, nano-technicians Phil and Darek find themselves 'dropped' into an adventure only their dreams could equal. A colorful escapade of "high"-ence fiction unfolds on a world far off, but not so different from our own. The crew discovers that there is more than one way for intelligent life to take root, while facing the challenge of making their way back home.
Perspectives from a new world enlighten.
