Before the Horizon

Stranded on an untamed continent thousands of miles from home, young Daniel and his mentor Abraham struggle to find their way back. Their adventures begin when their Viator airship crashes into a murky swamp while on route to a scientific research center. With their homing beacon unable to transmit from the swamp, the two heroes set out for some nearby mountains to reach higher ground. Their journey not only pits them against the forces of nature, but against a mysterious band of unseen natives whom our heroes struggle to elude. With their rescue seemingly at hand, Daniel and Abraham instead find themselves in the greatest danger of all. They're captured by a rival nation and held to face trial for the treasons of their ancestors. The journey brings Daniel face to face with the most fundamental questions of life, as he is forced to face his own mortality for the first time. Before the Horizon is more than just a simple physical journey. It is the mental and spiritual journey of one boy's quest tounderstand,what life means and how it came to be. Before the Horizon is the story of one boy's journey into manhood.Taylor, John is the author of 'Before the Horizon' with ISBN 9781592866991 and ISBN 1592866999.
