"Firefly" meets DUNE in this action-packed sci-fi adventure about a close-knit, found family of a crew navigating a galaxy of political intrigue and resource-driven power games.
Nev has just joined the crew of the starship Kaitan Heritage as the cargo loader. His captain, Qole, is the youngest-ever person to command her own ship, but she brooks no argument from her crew of orphans, fugitives, and con men. Nev can’t resist her, even if her ship is an antique.
As for Nev, he’s a prince, in hiding on the ship. He believes Qole holds the key to changing galactic civilization, and when her cooperation proves difficult to obtain, Nev resolves to get her to his home planet by any means necessary.
But before they know it, a rival royal family is after Qole too, and they’re more interested in stealing her abilities than in keeping her alive.
Nev’s mission to manipulate Qole becomes one to save her, and to survive, she’ll have to trust her would-be kidnapper. He may be royalty, but Qole is discovering a deep reservoir of power—and stars have mercy on whoever tries to hurt her ship or her crew.
The summary of this book basically has me dying to get my hands on it… here’s hoping someone takes pity on me…
About AdriAnne Strickland
AdriAnne Strickland was a bibliophile who wanted to be an author before she knew what either of those words meant. She shares a home base in Alaska with her husband, her pug, and her piles and piles of books. While writing occupies most of her time, she commercial fishes every summer in Bristol Bay, because she can't seem to stop. SHADOW RUN, her YA space opera coauthored with Michael Miller, is out with Delacorte/Penguin Random House in March 2017.
About Michael Miller
Unfortunately, most of my early life can’t be disclosed, as the statute of limitations hasn’t quite expired. I can tell you, however, that I grew up on an off-the-grid homestead in Alaska, and in the present day I live a substantially less interesting – if still quite enjoyable – life as an Apple Consultant.
Consulting inspires the delusion in people that ones opinions are actually welcome, which has lead to a variety of ventures in blogging, annoying advice-gifting at parties, and, most recently, half of a book.
Thanks to my incredible co-author, AdriAnne Strickland, this book is actually pretty sweet and we are now represented by the inimitable Kirsten Carlton. Our book, Shadow Run, will be published by the talented Kate Sullivan at Delacorte, all of which is much too exciting to be true.
