About
Embers of War meets Mad Max in a breakneck race to escape across an alien moon thriving with aliens and criminals.
Ten Low, is an ex-convict medic - sentenced to 10 years in jail for crimes during the war - who is trying to atone for her sins. Away from the fighting on a backwater moon, she wants to leave all of it behind, the war, the killing, and what it turned her in to.
This works until the day a spaceship crashes on her moon and she rescues a 13-year-old girl from the wreckage. No good deed goes unpunished, as Ten discovers she has rescued a deposed General - the result of a military genetics programme - from the other side of the war. The General needs off planet and Ten needs to forgive herself, so they set off on a desperate race to get the General to safety.
Fighting past military hit squads, all-female bandit gangs and bizarre aliens, it's down to a surly teenager and an exhausted medic to save the day. Stark Holborn is a novelist, games writer, film reviewer, and the author of Nunslinger and Triggernometry. Stark lives in the South West UK.
