The Otherlings is a fantastical story of life beyond death in the 'Prime Reality.' A reality an unimaginable distance away yet as close as a whisper. A place where space and time can be manipulated and warped at will by only the chosen few. Join Dorathy on her journey through this life into the next to a place where worlds collide.

The Otherlings started after having a conversation one night with friends. The story began with the basic idea of what might happen if one was cryogenically frozen and shot out into deep space. Then, what would it be like if an Alien craft would encounter such a cryocapsule and the likelihood that they would have the technology to revive you. The story evolved into so much more than that. I was fortunate enough to have help from a renowned scientist in the field of particle physics, a scientist from McMurdo station in Antarctica, and retired navy submarine officer. My research was a fun journey of reading books on all subjects from cryogenics to quantum mechanics to particle physics and breaking the standard model to genomics. I wrapped it all up in a science fiction story that includes a love story, action, adventure, secret codes, Ancient Aliens and cities. The themes in The Otherlings include friendships that span over space and time and last through adverse situations, and endurance of character through the roughest of times. All ending leaving you wanting more from the place somewhere over the rainbow. Yes there is a sequel...
