Produktbeschreibung

When a meteor storm destroys the Infinity 6 starship, adversaries Larren Brogue, the ship's entertainment director, and its brutal head of security, Braxor Hemsly, are cast onto Niobe-a hostile moon at the edge of the galaxy. Unbeknownst to each other, they land in different areas and find themselves navigating an environment filled with brutal, warring aliens.

For Braxor, the moon and its inhabitants can be dominated by controlling one group of humanoids. Niobe can be his kingdom, ruled without Earth's restraints, and a place to hide a questionable past. He wants to dominate, not merely survive. For Larren, Niobe is a descent into madness and becoming someone he never imagined. But the two do meet again, and their unresolved tensions continue.

Complicating their struggle is an Asian expedition that had previously crashed on Niobe. It's few survivors demand obedience in exchange for a rescue. Among the Asian crew is Dalnim, a woman astrobiologist gone rogue with a murderous agenda. She's an unpredictable wildcard that could doom them all. Will she be a savior or betrayer to both parties?

As tensions grow and a rescue ship nears Niobe, the alien conflict escalates. Larren believes Braxor has gone insane. Uncertain alliances and treachery become daily challenges for all the humans.

The two men must face their final rivalry. Larren must battle a man who would be king. On Niobe, choosing the right ally may mean the difference between life and death.

Autorenporträt

Crime Writers of Canada Arthur Ellis Award finalist, John Bilsland non-fiction award, Canada Book Award Winner and Author Shout 2023 honorable mention. Most mysteries and suspense novels have to do with cops, lawyers, and PIs. My protagonist is a firefighter and is the first firefighter pulp fiction in Canada. True grit and reality are my writing tenets.
My juvenile/middle grade/chapter books have no magic wands, wise talking creatures, vampires, or parallel worlds. I write stories about children, not so much specifically for children. Many adults enjoy my writing because of this. My stories are about unassuming boys who get in trouble and must prove themselves and show the world they have hearts of lions. There's fighting, conflict, loyalty, bullies, integrity, and courage. I've read samples to Grade 4 and 5 students and garnered excellent reviews.

I was born in Welland, Ontario and now live in Alberta. Backpacked the world on the Hippie Trail and lived in Australia. I've worked as a paperboy, grocery clerk, sales rep, all types of construction work, painter, mink ranch hand, assembly line rubber factory, cherry picker, freelance astronaut (no offers), boilermaker apprentice, delivery driver, father, coach, and career firefighter and officer for 32 years. I've also played drums in the Black Gold Big Band for 8 years.
I retired as fire captain with Edmonton Fire Rescue, a large Canadian metro fire service. I live in Beaumont, Alberta with Gloria, whom I met on a freighter/passenger ship from Jakarta to Singapore. I've climbed the Great Wall of China, been down and out living in Australia, honeymooned with Gloria during the Grenada Revolution and saw Maurice Bishop, snorkeled with a marlin, almost smuggled a Playboy into Communist Russia, tossed eggs at an Aussie PM, was in Havana when Fidel shocked Cubans and stepped down. My wife made a pot of tea for the Queen of England in N.Z.
I travel widely, do a bit of fishing and boating, drink demon rum, manage a writers group, do occasional renos, and sit on my butt outside in the good weather reading a decent book. My writing work consists of travel articles, YA, juvenile, how-tos, and has garnered several awards. Check out my website for some excellent short stories.
