Anomaly One Rick Krusky

What if the cure to man's deadliest disease were discovered but then lost?

And what if finding it again could lift a species to all-new heights or threaten its ultimate extinction depending on who got to it first?

The year is 2351 A. D.

A planet in a faraway system bursting at its overpopulated seams has been forced up and into the surrounding space above.

The result: a tangle of cities and floating empires collectively known as the Conglomerate.

An incurable disease runs rampant and afflicts many, including the princess of the most powerful empire in the Conglomerate.

But when a young man of an unfamiliar species sets out to meet her, he puts into motion a chain of events that offers a potential cure.

He also unwittingly puts into the hands of the devious underworld the makings of a weapon capable of taking out the entire population.

Anomaly One is a look into this futuristic world-from its upper political echelon to the seedy and traitorous underbelly below-in a race to save the princess from certain death and, in the process, maybe even the civilization from being extinguished entirely.
