Jim Laughter is a master storyteller. His first book, Escape
to Destiny, is one of those rare books that made me take pause and actually
think about the message. It captured my attention and held it until the last
page. The Horicon Experience, the second episode of the Galactic Axia series,
will carry you to new places throughout the galaxy, and thrill you with mystery
and danger. I can hardly wait for Space Trader, the third book in this exciting
adventure series. Job well done, Jim!

Jim has done it again! The
Horicon Experience sets off across the galaxy and never stops, introducing
a whole host of new characters that inspire, intrigue, and sometimes mystify
the imagination. As Jake Sender says in the book, “Hold on to your hat!”

A simple rescue mission, that’s what they said to Casca. But to the Eternal Mercenary it was anything but that. Recovering from the trauma of seeing his beloved Rome fall to the Goths, he’d taken on the first job that came his way in Gaul, to rescue a rich man’s beautiful daughter from a barbarian occupied city. Getting a group of mixed Roman and Germanic mercenaries to come with him on the mission was not difficult, given the gold promised in those times of uncertainty. What was difficult though was to find out which of his six companions was hiding an alternative agenda while travelling north to barbarian territory. What was also hard was to avoid getting caught up in a dynastic squabble between the King of the Burgundians and one of his group, the son of a rival Burgundian noble. It would be a mission that would test Casca to the limit of his endurance and abilities. Views: 28
