ASTRA: Book One
The universe is big. But not big enough to hide.
Astra is running away. Alex needs money. And the galaxy... doesn't care about their problems.
Astra Caelus, heiress to the powerful Atlantean family, had it all; influence, wealth and a planned future. She was the pride of her father, who saw her as the future of the empire. Until the day she decided to escape.
Alex Varneas could be a legend – if he wanted to. He is a former soldier, pilot and mercenary who has long since buried his ambitions under a pile of empty bottles. He has a ship, debts and a permanent hangover – nothing that couldn't be fixed with a quick job.
When Astra makes him an offer he can't refuse, he knows one thing for sure: this is going to be bad news. Because Astra is no ordinary passenger, and her journey is a one-way ticket to a place that should have died a long time ago: Earth.
And Earth is not what it is made out to be in the old Atlantean legends.
A kick-ass space opera, fueled by action and cynicism, in which there are no Jedi knights, but there are grumpy veterans, scams and deals that end in backstabbing.
If you love “The Expanse,” “Mass Effect” and “Cowboy Bebop,” you're on the right track.
For fans of everything that is dirty, brutal and bloody good.
