Lost Harvest

The United Kingdom of Earth is home to thirty million British subjects. According to leading scientists, most of them will starve in the next few years when the global food supply collapses. His Majesty’s government refuses to take these dire warnings seriously, choosing instead to believe the more comforting predictions of the bureaucrats.


In a desperate attempt to revitalize the fading master grains that feed humanity, the Science Minister and the First Lord of the Admiralty form a secret alliance and recruit William Pearce, deep-space veteran and former officer of the Royal Navy, to command the HMSS Harvest as it travels to the edge of the known galaxy. There, the remote planet Cygnus holds a possible answer to the coming famine if the Harvest can endure the interstellar voyage, the dangers of a strange world, and the seeds of disaster sown among her own crew.


From the author of Minotaur, the Lost Harvest trilogy reimagines the classic tale of the Mutiny on the Bounty on an Earth with a history divergent from our own, yet with an ominously familiar future.
