Jimbo’s Assumption By Richard N Philip Is A Galactic Adventure With An Unlikely Hero, On The Table Read Magazine, “the best entertainment eBook magazine UK“, Richard N. Philip’s new book, Jimbo’s Assumption, follows a student’s journey from ordinary life to cosmic adventure as he encounters extraterrestrial intelligence, exploring human progress and celestial mysteries.
Jimbo’s Assumption catapults the ordinary into the extraordinary, transforming the familiar streets of 1990s Edinburgh into a cosmic launchpad. Author Richard N. Philip weaves a captivating tale where Jimbo, a seemingly average engineering student, becomes the unwitting protagonist of an interstellar intrigue.
Set against the backdrop of scientific breakthroughs like the cloning of Dolly the Sheep, Jimbo’s life takes a dramatic turn when he’s recruited by 221, a mysterious celestial entity tasked with monitoring Earth. This unlikely alliance thrusts Jimbo into a perilous adventure filled with galactic espionage, criminal encounters, and mind-bending revelations.
As Jimbo navigates the complexities of his new role, he becomes entangled in a cosmic mystery that challenges the very foundations of human understanding. The Intelligence, an ancient, ethereal presence, observes humanity with growing interest, intrigued by our accelerating scientific capabilities.
With 221’s guidance, Jimbo embarks on a journey that takes him from the bustling streets of Edinburgh to the vast expanse of the Milky Way. Along the way, he encounters a diverse cast of characters, including brilliant scientists, enigmatic aliens, and dangerous adversaries.
Philip’s novel is a thrilling blend of science fiction and historical fiction, offering a thought-provoking exploration of human potential and the vastness of the universe. With its engaging characters, fast-paced plot, and insightful commentary on scientific progress, Jimbo’s Assumption is a must-read for fans of speculative fiction.
I wrote this novel to reflect on the magnificence of human scientific achievement and the greater mysteries that await us in the cosmos.
The arrival of my grandchild inspired me to create a legacy of thought and curiosity – something that could be passed down and honour the continual impact of our scientific explorations. The novel is an examination of how human development could be perceived by an intelligence far greater than our own. Additionally, it introduces readers to Jimbo – a character who many have reached out to tell me they believe is a classic hero – so seemingly ordinary, but so extraordinary in his adventures.
