Chains of the Cosmic Wanderer: The Action Manifesto

This is the story of Kevin X. Liscarrol's seduction, abduction and recruitment into a white-hat deep state organization - Preservers of the Asgard Settlement of Vinland - operated by hyper-partisan Americans committed to the defense of democracy. The primary settings are Key West, Great Abaco Island, Palm Beach and two unnamed tropical islands in the western Pacific. Renamed Commander Qo by his recruiter - the older, dapper, special operator Danny O'Brien who authored of The Action Manifesto - he has unique, intellectual skills that are required to prevent entities with interests inimical to the US from making their communications totally opaque from external surveillance and potentially throwing the worldwide strategic balance into chaos. However, Qo is also significantly flawed and a past tragedy in his life threatens his mental stability. Secondary characters are Cap' (a former US Navy SEAL and long-time friend of O'Brien's who shanghaies Qo from Key West), Becky Albury (who provides maternal-like tough love), Rachel (a sexually tempting member of the team) and Palila (Qo's wife from a questionable island rite in the Pacific). In addition, there are also many lesser characters that give the book substantial gravitas. This book is the first of two volumes that conveys a broader story. In a follow-on volume, subtitled The Asgard Imperative, Qo's mission is refined; he becomes erotically entangled with Rachel; and several new major characters are introduced. The two volumes actually dovetail page for page; in fact, they resulted from the cutting of the original manuscript in half when it exceeded a thousand pages.
