Extended description

Earth has been rendered uninhabitable by an asteroid impact. A woman wakes up on a pod ship orbiting a mysterious planet with golden rings. She’s been asleep for five hundred years and doesn’t remember who she is. She wakes up in Jameson Stryker’s hibernation chamber, so they call her Jamie. Half of her companions have died. She is surrounded by strangers and haunted by her dreams. When they land, Jamie and the other colonists find themselves on the shore of an alien sea and surrounded by a strange jungle. Mysterious lights appear and their settlement is threatened by forces beyond their control. Jamie begins to remember the past and discovers an alien presence. There is much more to her than she ever imagined. Everyone’s survival rests on her shoulders and resides in her mind.

Review by: Linda Hawley on Nov. 07, 2011 : star star star star star
After reading the sample chapters, I was hooked and bought the book. After starting it, I just couldn't put it down. The Rings of Alathea is a unique light science fiction book with some metaphysical elements. I became easily invested in the characters and was sorry to see the novel end. Moore's writing style is superb and his character development is excellent. I will certainly read more that this author writes.
