Beyond Tomorrow

Description
The galactic war has shaken the galaxy since prehistory, but mankind knew nothing of it. Like most of the truths of the universe, it was kept secret.
Among the travelers arriving in New Westminster in 1879 is Cylas Renford of Indiana, a man seeking his fortune after trying a long string of trades. His new friend and companion, Morninghawk, warns him of strange occurrences in the wilderness and the myth of a secret people, but Cylas fails to heed the warnings. An innocent walk in the woods and a series of coincidences will bring Cylas face to face with criminals, monsters, startling weapons, the secret people, and will culminate in being propelled Beyond Tomorrow.
Written in the tradition of American dime novels of the 19thcentury and the planetary fantasies of Edgar Rice Burroughs, Beyond Tomorrow is a pulpy first person tale of adventure in a future where the world itself has become an alien place. This LGBTQ adventure has a gay male protagonist and is non-explicit, in keeping with 19thcentury pulp writing.

- ndshackRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Imagine a place and time where Winnetou and Old Shatterhand meet the aliens that control our world. Have you ever had the feeling that there is something or someone controlling everything from behind the scenes? That there is a wider world out there? That you are just a puppet attached to strings that reach far into the unknown? These western heroes discover just that.
This story breaks tired old genre boundaries and shows just how deeply connected everything is.
