Overview

A strange intermittent transmission emanating from Pluto is playing havoc with Earth's omnipresent electronic systems in the early 2100's. The first ever expedition to Pluto is dispatched with the ambiguous goal of investigating and nullifying the problem. The crew of 4 humans and 4 android sets up a base of operations on Pluto's largest moon, Charon. Two accidents destroy the spacecraft and communication systems. This leaves only 1 male human (Joe) and 1 female android (Eva) marooned in the base for at least 4 years until rescue can occur. They also encounter a strange alien life form. Not just an account of a crash landing on an alien planet, Marooned on Charon explores the complex and very personal development of a relationship between an android and a human. It also delves into human psychopathology and the development of android emotion in the helpless face of an alien environment 3 billion miles from Earth. The author tells the tale from both human and android viewpoints, and writes from the unique perspective of being a clinical and neuropsychologist. Book 1 is Joe's account of his life and the parts that overlapped with Eva's, while Book 2 is Eva's perspective on her life and the same events. Book 3: Apocalypse will follow Eva and Joe into the distant future of Earth, when natural disasters and unchecked pandemics have decimated the Earth and its human population. Now in different forms, Eva and Joe will continue to work through their respective karmas, in the face of an unprecedented catastrophe which will bring the human species nearly to extinction.
