Neil Winscott, a discontented twentysomething, is finally coming
round to the belief that "Buracacia," the fantasy superpower world
he'd imagined since childhood, was merely something he'd created to
fill many voids in his life. But when the Buracacians not only
become real but visit Earth to protect it from their arch-enemies,
the Leeurns, Neil is forced to come face to face with his
creation-and one senior Buracacian, the intuitive Starla, who
considers him to have power over Buracacia's destiny. As Buracacian
and Earthling cultures mingle uncomfortably, Neil feels anything
but powerful and seeks solace with his salt-of-the-Earth friend
Adam.
When the Buracacians return to their planet, evacuating Earth's
weary inhabitants for their own safety, the conflicts and bizarre
situations that ensue not only test Neil's friendships but his
sanity and conscience. Neil becomes forced to ask himself how much
power and responsibility he has to help the Buracacians as an
outright war with the Leeurns looms on the horizon.
"Buracacia" is a sci-fi novel pregnant with psychological drama
where childhood fantasy and harsh adult realities collide head
on.
