Classic Space Opera for the Contemporary Age. Renowned artist Fred Gambino's debut novel is a thrilling and deftly told space opera that will have readers on the edge of their seats and leave them wanting more. Breel is abruptly fired from her dead-end job at the Beach, dismantling junked spaceships – a job she only took to help support her ailing father. She's convinced things can’t get any worse; until people start shooting at her. Breel sees her father sacrifice himself so that she can escape, to be chased offworld for a secret she didn't know she possessed. Pursued by agents of the ruthless and politically powerful Church of Second Light, she falls in with the crew of the Scavenger, a rag-tag group of misfits determined to thwart the Church's ambitions, which threaten the future of humanity. Breel finds herself at the centre of events, as only she can locate a mysterious RIP – a wormhole that will leave humanity vulnerable to an ancient enemy – and only she stands a chance of closing it. “With this novel – a fine piece of fast-paced slam-bang space opera – he {Gambino} shows himself to be as adept with words as he is with images.” – The Financial Times “Kinetic, sassy, character driven, hard science fiction, galaxy spanning, space adventure – what’s not to like?” – Ricardo Pinto “I loved this novel for many reasons. I’ll focus here on three: the characters, the imagery and the evolution of the storyline... Dark Shepherd is an enthralling, energetic and pacy example of space opera at its finest. Fred Gambino has shown himself to be as talented a writer as he is an artist.” – SFCrowsnest  The very special deluxe hardback edition, limited to just 24 copies, has SOLD OUT. Dark Shepherd is available as a paperback, an eBook, and a limited edition hardback, individually numbered and with each copy signed by the author. |
