Reality Rift

Dark Shepherd 2

by Fred Gambino
Classic Space Opera for the Modern Age.

In Dark Shepherd, renowned artist Fred Gambino delivered a thrilling space opera that earned acclaim from critics and readers alike. The book introduced us to Breel, chased offworld for a secret she didn’t know she possessed by agents of the ruthless Church of Second Light. 

Reality Rift continues Breel’s adventure. She has found a place among the crew of the Scavenger – a rag-tag group of misfits who defy the Church’s ambitions. Seeking answers to her own origins, and sensing a connection at the quantum level to a mysterious network, Breel leads her allies to the shepherd moon: an unstable satellite which is set to be destroyed by imminent seismic activity. Shipwrecked following an attack, they must somehow gather the resources to escape the doomed moon. 

They should be dead already, but unless they hurry, they very soon will be.

“At one level, Reality Rift is simply a hugely enjoyable slice of space opera. At another level, though, it explores many issues of real importance today, including the risks of unchecked individual power, the potential that artificial intelligence may have for both good and ill… Strongly recommended.” – SFcrowsnest 

Reality Rift is available as a paperback, an ebook, and a limited edition hardback limited to just 50 copies, each signed by the author.

**In addition, there is a DELUXE SPECIAL EDITION with the opportunity to qualify for a unique give-away.**

A special deluxe hardback edition, limited to just 28 copies. Printed on high quality silk paper (115 gsm), this will feature a wrap-around image on the dust jacket, and a different wrap-around image (shown above) on the book's coverboards beneath the dust jacket. The book will also feature further double page colour images on the endpapers.

Fred has created four hand-drawn sketches inspired by important aspects of the book (shown below). He is producing limited edition prints of these images, each accompanied by a signed certificate of authentication, one of which will be included in each of the 28 deluxe copies. In effect, producing four very limited editions of 7 copies. There is now only one of the four prints available, as the other three have SOLD OUT!

This time, however, there is a bonus. The buyers of the deluxe edition will be entered into a draw. The lucky winner of that draw will receive one of the four original drawings, hand-drawn and signed by the author. The originals are charcoal drawings on A3 size cartridge paper, and would normally retail at £400.00 each.
