GLOBAL BOOK AWARDS GOLD MEDAL WINNER FOR SCIENCE FICTION/SPACE EXPLORATION

The latest addition to the enjoyable Silver Sphere Series--for newcomers and friends of the series!

Writer and adventurer Jacob Casell, his lovely Astronomer wife Amy, and their brilliant but moody AI friend, Arcon, are at it again. Joined by new crew members, the trio embarks on a training mission in preparation to chauffeur a group of world leaders around the solar system to impart perspective and promote peace. As is often the case, their intentions are honorable, but the results are disastrous.

While parked in orbit around the swirling clouds of Jupiter, four alien freighters appear to siphon off enough of the planet’s gaseous atmosphere to cause a gravity imbalance. The intrepid Aneleyan Starcruiser, which Amy and Jacob have named ‘The Dauntless,’ will be devoured by Jupiter’s gravity unless the crew can escape orbit.

Find out what happens next in this extraordinary adventure that will keep you on the edge of your seat and guessing until the very end.

Although Return to Aneleya is the fifth book in the Silver Sphere Series, there is enough background included in the story to orient new readers and allow them to enjoy the novella as a stand-alone offering, and arouse enough curiosity to pick up the earlier editions.

"The fast-paced action and interplay between characters make for a sci-fi adventure that is both thought-provoking and fun—a thoroughly absorbing read that complements others in the series while expanding its foundation to stand nicely in its own adventure for newcomers to Gittlin’s world."
Diane Donovan--Senior eBook Editor--Midwest Book Review

"David Gittlin’s RETURN TO ANELEYA is another enjoyable episode in the Silver Sphere series that will make fans excited for the next."
Kent Lane for IndieReader

"Author David Gittlin blends smart sci-fi ideas with a warm, character-focused heart. I enjoyed how much fun this book was—it didn’t just throw me into danger, it gave me a crew I wanted to root for. The pacing is fast but not rushed, and the imaginative settings that go from deep space to the swirling chaos near Jupiter really drew me in. Even the politics were interesting without bogging the plot down. Overall, Return to Aneleya is an exciting, thoughtful, and thoroughly entertaining space opera for anyone who loves adventure with a human (and artificial) touch."

"I had a blast with this book. Gittlin’s writing is breezy, clever, and full of heart. The banter between characters, especially Jacob, Amy, and Arcon, feels like the kind of natural, lived-in dialogue you only get when the writer genuinely enjoys these people. The pacing is fast, sometimes almost breathless, and it works. There’s always something happening, whether it’s a space chase, a tense diplomatic moment, or a sweet, quiet scene between two characters who clearly care for each other. I appreciated how the book didn’t shy away from mixing big sci-fi ideas with down-to-earth emotions."
