About this ebook

The year is 2350.

Earth is in the Planetary Alliance with aliens who claim to be our creators. But not everybody agrees with the new doctrine.

Starship Scorpius is sent to explore space in search of advanced extraterrestrial technologies that will give us an advantage over our alien allies.

The battle for supremacy begins here…

On its mission to deep space, United Starmarine starship Scorpius arrives on the Delta Moon. Scans reveal atmospheric anomalies on the surface. First Commander Sy Race and Cadet Maya Scott fly to the surface to explore. 

Scott and Race discover a graveyard of ships hidden in a volcanic cave to be the cause of the anomalies. Upon closer inspection, they discover the fragments of the Explorer shuttle, a United Starmarine vessel that disappeared twenty years earlier when it collided with a black hole. Have they discovered the first known wormhole in the First Quadrant?

STARSHIP SCORPIUS SERIES is infused with aliens, AIs, ghosts, starships, high-tech, mysterious space phenomena, battles for life and death, and the central question of what it means to be an individual within the collective—human and alien—in the galaxy of the 24th century.

Ratings and reviews

This takes me back to when I first started with Sci-fi, over 5 decades ago. Good adventure mixed with different people and social moors. Lots of action, good vs evil, BEMs, (bug eyed monsters.) But now there is a lot more humanism in a lot of the best books. This is not what I expected from a sequel. It is better! A healthy mix of the first book with a lot of new people and social interaction, along with some facinating technology. My kind of book. Totally recommend. PRBarry

I tried to like it but it wasn't possible, the story wanders, backtracks and repeats itself on things that don't even add to the story itself. Then there is "Milk" which came from the first book which is essentially just a narrator who has nothing to do with anything and is a child essentially right down to the silly and spaztic way they talk to the reader and themself.

Primise is good. I like the story idea, but.... A total rewrite in my opinion, to eliminate all the overboard discription and gammatical inconsistencies is required. A good editor would never have accepted this work as is.
