Guaranteed to confound

your expectations!

(200 REVIEWS on AMAZON)


If you love sci-fi, demigods and the mysteries of mankind, this is a story for you.

  • "Castle's debut couples an ambitious premise with deliberately humorous prose." - Publishers Weekly

  • "Definitely worth the read for classic sci-fi fans!" - Coeur D'Alene Press


"With an action-packed opening, page-turning twists, a well-built world, and characters worth caring about, Europa Journal is like a bulldog - it grabbed me and wouldn't let go!" -- Elisa Brinton, Stuntwoman


  • On 5 December 1945, five TBM Avenger bombers embarked on a training mission off the coast of Florida and mysteriously vanished without a trace in the Bermuda Triangle.

  • A PBY search and rescue plane with thirteen crewmen aboard set out to find the Avengers . . . and never returned.

...and thus the history of humanity changed forever…


2168 AD: A mysterious five-sided pyramid is discovered on the ocean floor of Jupiter’s icy moon, Europa.

Commander Mac O’Bryant and her team are among the first to enter the pyramid’s central chamber. Inside, they find the body of a missing World War II pilot, whose hands clutch a journal detailing what happened to him and his crew after being abducted by aliens.

As the pyramid walls begin to collapse around Mac and her team, their names mysteriously appear within the journal and they find themselves lost on an alien world.

Stranded with no way home, Mac decides to retrace the pilot’s steps. She never expects to find the man alive... but if the man is not yet dead, what would that mean for Mac and the rest of her crew?

Reviews:

"Castle's debut couples an ambitious premise with deliberately humorous prose." - Publishers Weekly

"Author Jack Castle has an amazingly vivid imagination, and the skill to share it with others through his writing. The alien characters and cultures were amazing." - Dayna Leigh Cheser

"This tale...is definitely worth a read for fans of classic sci-fi, particularly those who miss the days of rubber-suited monster mashes, "Flash Gordon" and the original "Star Trek" series." - Mitchell Bonds, cdapress

Testimonials:

  • "I totally enjoyed this novel. It's very easy to read, with heart and emotion along with very alien aliens. It also has lots of action, with a rather high body count by the end." -- Paul Lappen, Reviewer
  • "From the "Cold Equations" feel in the first chapter to the exploration of ancient alien civilizations, Mr. Castle's story immerses the reader in a world of conspiracy, mystery, and nonstop suspense." -- Actress, Kathyrn Smith
