This novel is a long-needed antidote to the rose-colored,
star-athlete sagas popular in the world of "24-7 football access."
It throbs with adrenaline-pumping, hard-hitting reality, made all
the more compelling because it is based on the true story of author
Lloyd Pye's four years playing college football. This book
unblinkingly examines the the painful, shocking, and often
inspiring world of the redshirt athlete, an aspect of football
known superficially by every fan of the game, but the reality of
which is known intimately only by those "on the inside." Grippingly
real, intensely honest, this book provides an edge-of-your-seat
expose of a hidden and hushed-up aspect of college football.
Readers will live the hopes, dreams, and personal disasters of a
handful of young men who represent the thousands of redshirts who
will never have the glory, but will always represent the true guts
of America's favorite game. No one who reads this book will
ever--can ever--forget it. It is stunningly powerful.
The Starchild Skull chronicles eight-years of scientific testing of
a highly unusual human-like skull. Collectively, that testing
strongly indicates the skull is not entirely human. This is one of
the most important stories in the world right now, literally
history in the making.
