 An Excerpt

The Adonis flew out of the atmosphere
into a sea of Milky Way stars; billions of
them shining as Ben had never seen before.
Some dazzling and bright like great coloured
diamonds. Others swirling in spiralling masses
like the far away galaxies of Andromeda and
Triangulum. And millions more in open and
globular clusters, lighting sprawling clouds of
gas and dust that were glowing and fluorescing
in great canvases of colour, housing singular
and multiplicities of stars inside and out; some
dying, some being born, others being nurtured
in the magnificent nebulous nurseries. To his
right, shining like bright coloured pearls, were
Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn along the asteroid belts.
The grandeur of it all was breath-taking, exceeding
anything he had ever seen or imagined like a first-time
diver seeing thousands of fish around a coral reef.
