"On the fringe of extinction, it will take bravery to persevere. Year 50 is a science fiction novel set in a future where humanity is nearly extinct, and the last human colony is struggling to survive against the combined cruelty of nature and an alien species. Calypso has been raised from her young life to fight them, and it's now on her to save her colony by finding the medicine they need. Year 50 is a riveting novel that should prove hard to put down." -Michael Dunford, Midwest Book Review
