Word Branch Publishing Releases SF Adventure Novel-Pantheran

    MARBLE, NC, October 31, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Word Branch Publishing announces the release of the long-awaited concluding book of the popular Koinobi Trilogy. The novel ties together the story of three unlikely human companions, an affable insect-like parasite, and aliens struggling to understand the odd earth culture. Author Reid Minnich deftly explores the all too human traits of intolerance and prejudice and, through his metaphors, the damage that they cause.

Within a dozen light-years of returning to Earth with alien friends, David was hungry for answers. In hindsight, it was clear that before they were kidnapped, Kindra knew all about the Aquilans, a space-going race of large birds, and their war with the cat-like Pantherans.

Searching the monitor for the first glimpse of Earth, he rehearsed the question he would ask Mike until their progress is stopped by a giant Pantheran warship If half of what the Aquilans have said is true, David knew the only way the Pantherans will let the ship go is to give them something else to think about. He gave them himself.

"The Koinobi Trilogy does what science fiction does best: extrapolates an idea," says publisher Catherine Rayburn-Trobaugh. "This is no space opera; Minnich explores basic human traits, both bad and good, and pushes them to the limits of space while spinning an exciting adventure tale."

The Koinobi Trilogy is available online through Amazon and Barnes & Noble as well as the Word Branch online book shop: http://www.wordbranch.com/pantheran.html. Ask for it at your neighborhood bookstore, library and coffee shop.
