Mindjammer - Paperback

by Sarah Newton (Author)

IT IS THE SECOND AGE OF SPACE...

In the seventeenth millennium, the New Commonality of Humankind is expanding, using newly-discovered faster-than-light travel to rediscover lost worlds colonised in the distant past. It's a time of turmoil, of clashing cultures, as civilisations shudder and collapse before the might of a benevolent empire ten millennia old.

In the Solenine Cluster, things are going from bad to worse, as hyper-advanced technologies destabilise a world in chaos. Thaddeus Clay and his SCI Force special ops team are on the trail of the Transmigration Heresy. What they find is something beyond even their imagining - something which could tear the whole Commonality apart...

"Thrilling adventure and mystery wrapped up with an inventive, mind-bending look at mankind's future."
- Howard Andrew Jones, author of The Desert of Souls

"Science fiction like this never dies."
- Chris Helton, Dorkland

"Complex, gripping... the most original sci-fi you're likely to get..."
- G*M*S Magazine

"a very exciting and intelligently-written novel that should be on the reading list of every SF fan "
- Stargazer's World

"William Gibson-like in the intensity of the ideas it introduces... a heady mixture of action, crunchy science fiction elements and that perennial cyberpunk or transhuman question: what does human mean?"
- Shores of Night
