"A classic sci-fi read that wears its influences on its sleeve, that is sure to please die hard fans of the genre." - Reedsy Discovery Must Read, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Humanity's last hope comes down to a twisted, claustrophobic game of cat and mouse hundreds of light years away from home.

After the fallout of an ill-advised space war leaves Earth teetering on the edge of doom, Commander Davis leads the first manned mission to recolonize our species on far away planet Nova.

The mission is rushed and thrown together last minute, just like its crew. When it all suddenly goes horribly wrong hundreds of light years away from both Earth and Nova, it's up to David to save the mission, the ship, and the human race itself.

Will Davis succeed against all odds? Or is he, like the mission, doomed to be lost in deep space forever?

AI concept great but inconsistent use and logic flaws ruined it for me.

Also, just hire a reader - the AI reader was terrible.

Great concept but logic errors
