Product Description
Science fiction, with real science in it, is hard to find today. Most current science fiction stories depend more on fantasy than on anything to do with real science and math. Just a few years back, the reverse was true with a vast array of stories that are still being read, re-written, and made into movies/television shows. The science fiction story is back with Eyes of an Eagle. Daniel Karpinens job is technical editing for a large textbook and magazine publisher. He is living at the old family farm deep in the backwoods of Northern Minnesota and commuting electronically to his Chicago publisher. His personal life takes a sharp left-hand turn into the mystical stories told by his grandmother. Before Daniel understands what is happening around him, he discovers the mathematical key to controlling gravity. To survive his discovery, he will have to master both the magical mysteries of his ancestors and the science and engineering no one else yet understands. Eyes of an Eagle isnt just a walk through the science of the possible but a swashbuckling adventure story. The near future has never looked more thrilling, dangerous, or filled with possibilities.

An entertaining story from first page to last February 13, 2003
Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA)
Eyes Of An Eagle is a fascinating and original work of science fiction in which Daniel Karpinen, a textbook and magazine editor, discovers the mathematical key to controlling gravity. What Daniel has learned brings both great change and great danger, as well as evoking mystical forces beyond his immediate comprehension which propel him on an inner journey tracing the ways of his ancestors. Highly recommended reading for "science oriented" science fiction enthusiasts, Eyes Of An Eagle is an impressively profound (even spiritual), compelling, and entertaining story from first page to last.
