Sebastian Howarth: The Synthetic Hunger, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

A BRAND NEW SCI-FI ACTION-ADVENTURE SERIES

The PanTerran Nutritional Authority controls the food supply, and through it, the fate of every settled world. Its ships cross the galaxy carrying the nutrient gel that keeps billions alive, its officials regulate what can be grown, and its influence reaches into every colony, station and household. For most people, the Authority is unavoidable. For Captain Lorian Vance, it is simply an excellent target.

Aboard The Audacity, Vance and his mismatched crew make their living somewhere between legitimate courier work and carefully justified piracy. Their jobs are dangerous, their paperwork is questionable, and their survival usually depends on confidence, quick thinking and leaving before anyone notices what has gone missing.

But when a routine delivery takes them to an isolated mining colony, Vance begins noticing details that do not fit.

Drawn into a mystery far greater than any theft or smuggling run, Vance and his crew must follow a trail that leads beyond forgotten colonies, abandoned vessels and the hidden machinery of the Authority itself. Whatever is unfolding has already spun out of control, and the crew of the Audacity is the Rim's only hope of stopping it.
