"A compelling vision of a possible future, filled with insightful commentary." — Kirkus Reviews
In a world eerily parallel to our own, life is bisected by the Barrier—a monolithic edifice that symbolizes division and control. It segregates nations and dictates the very fate of those bold enough to cross. Journeys north are fraught with treacherous trials, yet they glimmer with the promise of a better life.
"Right Hand of the Resistance," by Paul Michael Peters, resonates with the heart-pounding suspense reminiscent of Tom Clancy, the speculative ingenuity akin to Dan Simmons, and the dystopian foresight of George Orwell, making it essential for any discerning reader's collection.
Beyond the Barrier is a labyrinthine game of politics where the cost of passage is measured not only in currency but also in sacrifices. Authorities, wielding a cold calculus, decree who may pass and who will pay the ultimate price. Amidst this, the resistance—a covert network of rebels—rises to challenge the status quo and dismantle the oppressive mechanisms that dominate the pilgrims' lives.
Paul Michael Peters crafts a narrative rich in suspense and speculation, where the stakes are life-or-death, and themes of love, faith, family, power, and control are dissected with a perceptive eye and incisive wit. Navigating a maze of twists and turns, Paul Michael Peters invites readers to question the world around them.
The novel explores the extremes to which individuals will go to safeguard their loved ones, uphold their beliefs, and carve a pathway through a world that seems intent on thwarting them. With a fusion of suspenseful narrative, profound political intrigue, and vividly crafted speculative elements, Paul Michael Peters delivers a story that not only mirrors our current predicaments but also serves as a harbinger of what may loom on the horizon.
