A Buzz, Volume 1 Summary

Number one international best seller and number one new release

In an ancient alternate history, four distinct regions of South America have merged to form one technologically advanced nation called The Land.

Twenty-one-year-old Commander Jaway Barbour leads his young crew on military missions against the final remaining holdouts against the empire - the exploited tribes of the Wild Territory.

When a bomb explodes, damaging their ship, it sends the crew on unexpected adventures.

How will Jaway and the other youthful risk-takers navigate life and love in this dangerous, exotic world? How long can they evade the looming danger from the Wild Territory clans? And are they fighting on the right side to begin with?

A Buzz, the first volume of Jacob Lightman's epic new science-fiction series, delivers thrilling adventures in The Land that could have been.

Review

"An engaging, romantically infused SF tale of an alternative-Earth empire." (Kirkus Reviews)

"Readers looking for elaborately detailed world-building, intriguing futuristic tech, and sci-fi universes with a more upbeat tone will be quickly drawn into this creative work of speculative fiction." (SPR, 4.5 stars)

"Fans of team- and world-building will enjoy accompanying this ancient Earth SF epic's inviting cast through the rainforest." (Publishers Weekly)

"An imaginative and immersive plunge into a futuristic landscape set 6500 years in the past. The most impressive aspect of the novel is the depth of detail in everything from the visceral environment, savage wildlife, and odd culinary options to global history, societal organization, and the dynamic relationships between the main characters. This intensely creative future world is well thought out and undeniably unique, particularly when it comes to technological advancements. A Buzz is a striking vision of a futuristic alternate history." (Self-Publishing Review)

"A high-stakes sci-fi adventure set in a technologically advanced South America." (Independent Book Review)
