The Black Swan Event is a natural disaster thriller series from international bestselling author, Bobby Akart, one of America's favorite storytellers, who has delivered up-all-night thrillers to over two million readers in 245 countries and territories worldwide.
When NASA's SWAN space telescope detects a faint ultraviolet anomaly beyond the orbit of Jupiter, astronomers assume it's a comet-an interstellar visitor drifting harmlessly through space. But as more data pours in from observatories around the world, the excitement turns to confusion then to fear.
4I/SWAN isn't just unusual. It's breaking all the rules.
Trajectory models are beyond explanation.
Composition suggests the comet is manufactured.
Outgassing profiles don't match known celestial bodies.
Radio telescopes detect harmonic pulses no one can explain.
Great characters and a horribly terrifying storyline make this a great read! I just pray that this story doesn't become prophetic.Inside NASA, scientists whisper the unthinkable: What if this isn't natural?If the comet is a messenger, the fate of humanity may be the message.
If it's something else, humanity may be the target.
Black Swan reveals a conspiracy that threatens the world but will leave you asking,
Are we alone?This modern-day, fact-based novel will have you whispering just one more chapter until the end.
