Infinity’s Gateway by James S. Parker

Every year, all across the planet, people simply vanish, completely disappear and are never seen again. Some areas of the world are well known for this phenomenon. Infinity’s Gateway opens with a very famous incident that took place just after the end of World War II with the United States Navy. The story then jumps to the present day with an unexplainable event that occurs off the coast of Florida, an event that cannot be ignored by the military.

The Navy ship Eclipse and its crew are sent to investigate, but after several days come up empty. Two days before returning to port, the event reoccurs, and the Eclipse is caught up in something it cannot escape. The Eclipse and its crew suddenly find themselves completely isolated, all communication lost, surrounded by a terribly hostile environment where each day is a struggle to survive. Infinity’s Gateway is an intense, action packed story of survival, self-reliance, and discovery.

About the Author

Every now and then author James S. Parker has a vision. And, when he does, he sees people and places off in the misty distance. Sometimes these visions are futuristic and filled with danger. Most often they are mystical, with good and evil and a cast of characters who beautifully represent both.

In his high school years James experienced a spine tingling brush with the supernatural. That single event – complete with the sound of heavy footsteps and an invisible visitor – etched forever in his mind the idea that life is much more mysterious than we oftentimes admit, that the spiritual world is all around us, and that its impact on us cannot be denied.

Though he sees through a glass darkly, he writes as though he has been granted a glimpse into the unknown, one that has informed his novels and their powerful stories of good and evil and the struggles we all face every day to assure that good wins.

Infinity’s Gateway, the first book in a fascinating sci-fi adventure trilogy, is his latest work.

James lives in San Antonio, Texas with his wife, Margaret.

My Review

5 stars

A strange event has happened in the Bermuda Triangle. It has a huge energy reading but by the time the US military gets anyone in that area there is nothing to see. Is this just another fanciful Bermuda Triangle story? To make sure this is not an act of war, the Navy sends in the special ship, Eclipse with a team of top scientists and marines. When the even happens a second time the Eclipse disappears yet finds themselves in a new world. There they find amazing creatures and things. But will they be able to find their way home.

It’s hard to post a summary of this book and not give too much away. The story starts out with the famous Flight 19 the disappeared in the Bermuda Triangle and really caught my attention. The Eclipse is an amazing ship and the best thing to send into this situation. Of course I was hoping everything would work out but this is the first book in a series and you are left with a great cliff hanger.

I will be honest, there was part in the beginning that was dragging a little but stick with it, there is a point and purpose. This is a great story and I can’t wait to get my little grubby fingers on the next book. Make sure to check it out!!
