Booth and Clegg are two U.S. Air Force spy-plane pilots, the elite of an elite, men confident in their skills, men who know each other as well as they know themselves. Or so they think. When their spy plane inexplicably plummets from the sky over Saharan Africa, they find themselves thrust onto a journey to the far poles of late-twentieth-century human experience.

Reminiscent in its own way of The Right Stuff, Waiting for Godot, and Gravity's Rainbow, Terrestrials follows Booth and Clegg from their crash landing in the desert and incarceration by the U.S. Government on suspicion of being spies to their giddy escape and flight up the eastern seaboard to sanctuary in an abandoned barge. Terrestrials is meditation on the substance of human bonds and human memory, a celebration of the art and science of aviation as well as a buddy novel in the grand tradition.
