Robert T. Reif Launches His Exciting New Sci-Fi Novel, 'Frontier One'

On September 10, 2025, Robert T. Reif, a filmmaker turned author, proudly announces the release of his debut science fiction novel, 'Frontier One.' This captivating tale invites readers into the imaginative journey of Talina Day, a young astro-zoologist, exploring the lush jungle planet of Andula.

Talina's adventure begins when she encounters Charlie, a wild man raised in isolation by massive iguanas known as Dracomander. Being born on a planet cloaked in persistent cloud cover, Charlie has no understanding of the universe beyond his home and believes his world is flat. However, everything changes when he travels with Talina to her home planet, where he discovers the vastness of the cosmos.

This exploration leads to thrilling discoveries: a rogue thirteenth planet wandering through space towards the Twelve Worlds and a mysterious signal suggesting the existence of intelligent life. As they embark on their mission—aptly named Frontier One—Charlie and Talina meet a lineup of unforgettable characters, including a courageous space ranger, a moonborn prince, a skilled Varaknow warrior, and an enigmatic professor, each adding depth and excitement to their cosmic journey.

Reif, inspired by his lifelong passion for space and storytelling, initially conceived 'Frontier One' as a screenplay. After years of perfecting the narrative, he decided it was time to share it with the world. He expresses a desire for his book to spark curiosity and wonder among readers of all ages. “I want it to inspire a sense of exploration,” he shared, emphasizing that it is suitable for children and adults alike. He envisions middle school students getting enchanted by the story and possibly seeking to learn more about astronauts or joining a science club after reading it.

Reif describes 'Frontier One' as a lighthearted space adventure centered on themes of environmental respect, love, and human connection, wrapped in the excitement of spaceships, lasers, and androids. As a stand-alone project with a complete narrative arc, the author hints that a sequel is already in the works, tentatively titled 'Across the Frontier.' This sequel will further develop the universe of the Twelve Worlds while introducing both familiar and new characters.

Robert T. Reif, an American science fiction writer, filmmaker, and amateur astronomer, was born in New York City. An educated alumnus of Sarah Lawrence College, he has honed his storytelling skills not only through writing but also by working behind the scenes in film and television. 'Frontier One' marks the beginning of his literary journey, and he is excited about the potential impact his story can have on readers worldwide.
