Borderlands is particularly pleased to welcome back Philip K. Dick
Award Winner Richard Paul Russo, author of SHIP OF FOOLS and the
marvelous CARLUCCI books. Richard will be reading from his brand-new
space opera, THE ROSETTA CODEX. From Publisher's Weekly: ". . . Cale
Alexandros, the heir to a great mercantile family who's abandoned at
age five on a backwater planet, grows up among savages. Barely
surviving into adulthood, Cale makes his way out of the wasteland to
the planet's one civilized city, where he discovers the
Resurrectionists, a cult dedicated to unearthing the ancient
technologies of an extinct alien race, and begins to understand the
meaning of the Rosetta Codex, a strange artifact he himself
discovered in the wasteland. Cale must also deal with the mysterious
Blackburn and his employers, the Borg-like Sarakheen, who want the
artifact for themselves. After regaining control of the Alexandros
family holdings on another planet, Cale sets off on a journey that
will transform the galaxy, his goal nothing less than the
resurrection of the ancient aliens who created the codex . . . ."
