Behind the Sun by Sue Nielsen follows Sally Burns and a team of elite experts when they are assigned to travel to a newly discovered planet on the opposite side of the Sun, one almost identical to Earth in mass, orbit, and size. What they encounter challenges their beliefs about Earth history, its development, and the nature of reality itself. Facing sabotage, violence, and events and creatures of mythological scope, Sally and the team are unprepared for the shattering revelations they encounter. In the end, Sally and the others find that there is a greater fate waiting for them, one more profound than Sally, or anyone, could have ever imagined. Written in masterful prose and told in the best traditions of the sci-fi action genre, Behind the Sun builds on mythological and religious traditions, science, and pure imagination to create a world like no other. Populated with compelling characters and thrilling plot lines, Sue Nielsen has written a book that will grab you by the collar and not let go.

   This is one of the deepest sci-fantasy books I have ever involved myself in.

   The questions for the reader keep coming thick and fast, whether based on religion/faith, history and experience or just plain old interest.

   Well worth the read and I am certainly looking forward to more from this author..

   With out of this world technology and picturesque landscapes, “Behind the Sun” left me thinking about what is really out there in our universe and beyond. For me this book was a cross between a history lesson, a sci-fi movie with an element of fantasy.

   I love the way the author crossed from scene to scene, as I was always wondering what the other experts were up to.

   I also enjoyed the way the author portrayed the various sights on Earth, it felt like I was there.
