The Endless Sky

Oh God, oh God, oh God, Mud’s leading the team this time. Duck! It’s five against the impossible. (And they don’t even have a functioning ship.)

Sequel to This Starry Deep!

Description

Stepping into his parents’ legendary combat boots, Captain Mud Madison (please stop calling him ‘Newt’) is still breaking in his fresh Insertion Team. Their corporate mandate is simple: drop in when a planetary crisis turns truly ugly, apply heavy ordinance, and stabilize the sector. But when their latest drop vehicle enters atmosphere as a literal, splitting fireball with zero brakes, “smooth deployment” goes right out the observation window. Surviving a tactical beach landing is just the warm-up, because an ancient cosmic secret is about to breach their reality. It’s five under-prepared grunts against a multi-versal incursion no one thought was possible. Luckily they have each other. And gravity packs. And blasters. And grenades.

 

Adam P. Knave is here to save pulp from itself. In a time where the past is viewed through rose-tinted goggles it's beyond refreshing to find an author this concerned with modern sensibilities, characters that do actual THINGS and fun. Brilliant work from a force for good in the field.
