The Borsen Incursion (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

For five centuries, a unified Earth has been the centre, and ruler, of all it surveys: an empire that spans two thousand worlds. It has been unchallenged for three hundred years. The Borsen use strange technology to strike down any opposition with terrifying ease. Yet, their seemingly unstoppable forces show an inexplicable reserve. It leads a few to suspect they have a purpose beyond conquest. Faced with a dire threat for the first time in living memory, military bureaucracy and entrenched arrogance lead to grievous losses. Even when a miraculous new technology offers an upper hand, factionalism arises to threaten those who use it. As the Borsen escalate their offensive, the forces of Earth are hamstrung by infighting and political manoeuvring. Finally, one group rebels, turning against the edicts of the stultified command structure. But have they done so in time to save humanity? A centuries-spanning tale of space warfare told from major and minor viewpoints: using over fifty pieces of carefully-crafted short and flash fiction, this book will take you from the start of the incursion to its end, letting you witness the war while revealing its impacts and revelations from every angle.

Autorenporträt

Julian's first loves were science fantasy and magic; the blending of ancient and futuristic. This led him to a love of speculative fiction, initially as a reader, then as a reader and writer.

He started writing at school, extended into writing role-playing game scenarios, and thence into bardic storytelling. In 2011 he published his first books, in 2012 he released more (along with the smallest complete role-playing system in the world).

With over 30 books published in digital and physical formats, he has no intention of stopping this writing lark anytime soon, and he'd be delighted if you'd care to join him for a book or two.
