Sixteen-year-old Phil Smith journeys into a futuristic world where he must survive and find his way back to his former life
SWINDON, England, July 18, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Jules Gabriel marks his entry to the publishing scene with the release of "The Gate Keeper" (published by Xlibris UK), a thrilling tale about a teen who journeys into a futuristic world where he must first attempt to survive and then somehow find his way back to his former life.
Sixteen-year-old Phil Smith is an athlete thriving for excellence while being confronted by bullies at seemingly every turn. But everything is about to change when a stranger makes a brief introduction into his life, partially revealing a future revelation about Phil. As the teen and his single mother try to determine the stranger's identity and why he knows Phil's darkest secret, a chain of unexpected events unfolds.
When two detectives show up at Phil's door and ask him to accompany them downtown for an interrogation, nothing is, as it appears to be. As his reality is altered on the way there, every step forward becomes risky. While Phil embarks on a quest to learn more about his future in order to better understand his current situation, danger lurks at every corner as he travels through an unknown futuristic world. As he relies on his martial arts skills and instinct to survive, he must do everything in his power to save himself, uncover the reason why he is enduring this ordeal, and return to his own time.
"This is a story with a lot of action which has never been told in this manner and the sci-fi of time travel added to it, makes it much better," Gabriel says. When asked what he wants readers to take away from the book, he answered, "When you get an opportunity in life, take it and do not do wrong to anyone as you don't know where you might end up."
