Termination Shock
Despre această carte electronică
Ryler Mallivan’s comfortable life as an upstanding young freighter captain has just imploded. Avaraks are storming the training ship he is on and the bullets being fired are not blanks. Interstellar war has broken out and unless he moves fast they will all be as stone dead as the instructor lying at his feet. <br /><br /> But this is one conflict they can never escape. The cause of the trouble is far closer than they know and will bring Mallivan and his ragbag fledgling crew under ferocious attack from all sides.
They are going to need all their wits about them if they are to stay alive. And they have to, because there is nobody else to save all their worlds from a doomsday weapon which is set to obliterate the entire universe.
Just how much can one lone spaceship do?

Despre autor
Termination Shock is the first book in the Interstellar Enforcement Agency trilogy and the first book set in the Major Shells.
Gillian Andrews’ latest books are set in the Major Shells universe. There are two trilogies with an interquel in between. The first trilogy is the Interstellar Enforcement Agency (Termination Shock, Interdicted Space and Exceptional Point). These are followed by the interquel, Supershell Storm. Finally the Quantum Heritage trilogy (Slipstream Alley, Spectacular Error and The Last Bridge) finishes the Major Shells arc. She is also the author of the Ammonite Galaxy series and the standalone novel Kelfor, which loosely links both universes.
“... Science fiction at its very best.” Winner, READERS FAVORITE Awards
“... Best speculative fiction ...” Finalist, PARSEC Awards
Gillian Andrews lives on an island in the Mediterranean, is passionate about cosmology and writes upbeat adventures set in deep space and unknowable worlds.
Her advice to new authors is to keep on writing, come what may. "Your books may even have a longer shelf life than you. Who knows? Those words you liked so much may be read by future generations long after you have been turned back into stardust!"
