An Intergalactic Sojourn

Readers are in for a no-holds-barred vacation at Hotel Spacious on the Vallinian Galaxy of Asteroid One-Eight Nine. This grand hotel welcomes a plethora of intergalactic beings whom J.S. Frankel presents with vivid flair.

The central adventure of first-rate suspense involves the murders perpetrated by the elusive, shapeshifting Anarkus/Jenadah Rima over a secret recipe for preparing the gnaurlak, a rare animal capable of transferring supreme powers to the eater.

However, the heart and soul of Hotel Spacious is that of the romantic relationship which develops between Vern, a human, and Dinarra (Dee) a cat-tiger woman. The reality of intergalactic prejudice, and its far-reaching implications create a pervasive undercurrent throughout the novel.

I highly recommend Frankel’s Sci-Fi Romance/Adventure for its well-written prose, admirable protagonists, and far-out characters amidst the elements of danger and suspense, fraught with intolerance.
