Book excerpt: Earth has been destroyed, the entire solar system turned to dust by a cataclysmic event known as the Fracture. Now, the last survivors of humanity live on vast arkships drifting through the Cluster, doing what they can to survive in a hostile ever-changing environment. Arkship Encounters includes 3 prequel stories to the Arkship Saga. Arkship Sanctuary: set 23 years before book 1 and features a notorious villain from the saga: A young girl, alone on a vast arkship, must fight to survive as its former inhabitants, now drug-fuelled monsters, hunt her down, intent on infecting her with the toxic narcotic known as Gravel. Arkship Graveyard: set 10 years before the events of book 1. Prince Thyred Kenric, war-weary and disillusioned, stumbles on the wreckage of an ancient arkship. But it's not just any ordinary arkship - this one belonged to his grandfather and is rumoured to contain a secret weapon that could help end the war. But Thyred soon discovers that not everything is dead on board the long-forgotten arkship. Arkship Countdown: set immediately before Arkship Obsidian. Life on board the Ark Royal Obsidian is a quiet routine for Chief of the engine deck, Bran Colmen. That is until his family is kidnapped and he is forced to steal secrets about the vast arkship's engines by a covert intruder. As time runs out, Colmen finds himself trapped between saving his family and averting a war that could kill thousands.
