The Medusa Fold

Could disaster fall upon the new starship Gabriel on its maiden voyage?

Edward Virr and his crew are given an easy task by Commander Bache Loftt and the President of the GDA. Find two errant vessels and report their position. A simple enough job and one they can use to shake down their new bigger and more powerful starship.

What they hadn’t foreseen, was two of their sworn enemies meeting up and combining forces to enact vengeance on not only the crew of the Gabriel, but on Dasos, the home planet of the galactic council itself.

Events rapidly escalate out of control as the crew get split up, their ship is stolen and an attempt to outwit a foe so powerful he can move planets has a surprising and unexpected outcome.

A tale of hate, recrimination and ingrained maliciousness that strikes at the Gabriel’s crew and the major power brokers within the galactic council.

Author Note:

For the benefit of my awesome fans across the pond, this novel is written in UK English and may include a few colloquialisms and spellings that you don’t recognise. There is, understandably considering the circumstances, a bit of swearing involved. We do swear a bit in England, just put it down to eccentricity, or maybe our spirited Anglo-Saxon heritage.

Another unusual trait of the Brits, is to use humour in stressful situations. Just ask anyone who’s been on active service with the British Armed Forces. It helps to keep one sane!

Now you’re all prepared, I hope you enjoy the yarns.

Cheers for now
Nick Adams
