When not writing, I cook Italian having grown up with a Sicilian mother, a wonderful cook who took the time to insure each of her children knew how to prepare a great Italian meal.

The Autopsy of Planet Earth by R.J. Eastwood is a fast-paced, gripping sci-fi novel with a unique premise, a story that follows the adventure of an alien who may hold the key to save Earth from its slow death. Legna, an extraterrestrial, arrives on Earth with a very curious claim — his race created mankind and then abandoned humans to evolve on their own. Now disheartened at humanity’s slow self-destruction and ignorance, he’s returned to reverse the path and restore them to a way of life that knows peace and harmony. Readers are thrust into a dizzying adventure with the US Chief of Staff, Gabriel Ferro, and Dr. Catherine Blake as they are transported to a world where no human has ever been. Can the alien be for real and is there a way to correct the harm that is already done to Earth and humanity? The answers this book offers will surprise you.
