Description

An out-of-this-world tie-in of the After Earth film which stars Will Smith Experience a novelization unlike any other. From Peter David, the veteran sci-fi author, this is the complete, never-before-seen chronicle of an extraordinary family who've been across the galaxy and back. RAIGE RUNS IN THE FAMILY General Cypher Raige comes from a family of heroes. Since humanity's exodus from the Earth a thousand years ago and the subsequent onslaught from a mysterious alien force, the Raiges have been instrumental in mankind's survival. For Cypher's thirteen-year-old son, Kitai, tagging along with his legendary father is the adventure of a lifetime. But when an asteroid collides with their craft, they make a crash landing that leaves Cypher seriously - and perhaps fatally - wounded. With his father's life on the line, Kitai must venture out into the strange, hostile terrain of a new world that seems eerily familiar- Earth.
