Down Below Beyond is a science fiction adventure by T.A. Bruno. A prospector named Levort Aatra found a mysterious spacecraft while scouring the wastes of the abandoned planet Tayoxe and claimed it for himself. Levort did not realize that in doing so he had made himself a target. Levort and Bayfo Niall had been longtime friends, which was to Levort’s advantage as Bayfo was an armed enforcer who upheld the Fleet's self-serving rules on the ground. An unknown four-armed alien informed Levort that the Voyalten Web had been replaced by portable gadgets that could create their teleportation gates independently of Fessenog's authority and tariffs. This forbidden network was known as the Beyond, and Levort’s involvement made him an enemy of Bayfo. This created an immediate conflict between the two former best friends.
Down Below Beyond is outstanding and exciting. T.A. Bruno created a sci-fi fantasy in a way that allowed me to visualize the different worlds and characters. It was fast-paced and jam-packed with action. I was intrigued from the start and kept guessing until the end. The protagonists were well-developed and brought to life with illustrations that described them and their worlds. My favorites were Bayfo and Levort and their broken friendship was a great loss to me. There were plenty of other amazing and interesting role-players. I enjoyed meeting those of different races and discovering their domains. The story is brilliantly written. It was a fun read, and at times I laughed out loud. I enjoyed the mixture of humor, discovery, and the fight scene.
