Summary: Story of a man who finds his cause
Review: Falling Torch is one of those stories that you, or at least I, can connect with. This is due in no small part to the fact that Michael Wireman, the main character is a believable person. He's not superman and he's not Jojo the idiot circus boy. He's just a guy in the right place at the right time. The right ancestry couldn't have hurt. Wireman's the son of the president of the solar system., not that it means much on Alpha Centaur. It seems Earth and the solar system are under "Invader" control. The only thing his father presides over is a government in exile that the centurians could care less about. Then one day the situation changes... since I didn't see a synopsis provided by Amazon (unusual) I'll copy it down here: Wireman came back to a vanquished Earth on a mission to save it. What he learned was that the guerrillas were corrupt and the average citizen would just as soon be left alone. And he wasn't in very good shape himself. 1991 paperback synopsis
