2024 Readers' Favorite Award Winner - Science Fiction
The Republic has known peace for nearly a century. Memories of the Han War have faded over time, with the pain and suffering of total war, and sense of shared sacrifice in the face of annihilation, both distant memories. Disagreements among member systems threaten to fracture the cohesiveness of a united Republic, but the Combined Fleet—an aging shadow of what it once was—still stands guard. Beyond the outer reaches of Republic space, an old enemy prepares to strike. Fueled by the bitterness of defeat, and enflamed by an apparent sneak attack, the Han cultivate the seeds of dissent among those in the Republic sympathetic to their cause. To the Han Bloc, the moment to act has arrived. Once again. Aboard the Republic cruiser RSS Repulse, Commander Jackson Flynn takes the reigns of command and quickly finds himself in the middle of a war no one expected, a war not only between the Republic and the Han Bloc, but also against the treachery within the Combined Fleet itself. As the fleet crumbles before his eyes during the opening stages of battle, Jackson Flynn knows one thing… The Han are on the march again, with a vengeance. And his Repulse is on the line.

Smuggling precious cargo to a remote colony was supposed to be easy. I was dead wrong.

When brilliant physicist Dr. Alex Edgars stumbles upon the key to unlocking the multiverse, he inadvertently sets in motion a chain of events that threatens the very fabric of reality.

One reviewer wrote:
“I absolutely loved this book! I have been reading science fiction for decades, and this story deserves a place on the very top shelf. Edge of your seat suspense, brilliant characterisation, intelligent narrative, laugh-out-loud humour and a plot that moves at a cracking pace – this story has got everything that I love in a great book. It is very cleverly written by an author who really knows how to tell a fantastic yarn. But be warned – you will have great trouble putting it down! I gobbled it up in two sittings! There is everything to love and nothing to hate in this absolutely gripping hard science fiction story.”

If you enjoyed the movies "The Martian", "Minority Report", "Passengers", "AI" or "Interstellar" you will love this book! Similarly, if you enjoyed the books "Dark Matter", "Children of Time", "Winter World", "The Enceladus Mission" or any of the classic stories by sci fi masters such as Isaac Asimov, Robert Heinlein, & Arthur C Clarke, then this is the book for you!

The reality-shattering stakes of Dark Matter meet the poetic soul of This Is How You Lose the Time War.

She paints the patterns. They are doorways. And they are breaking the world.

Anela Foster survives the brutal winters of Lake Placid by painting things she shouldn't be able to see. Recursive loops. Impossible angles. Geometries that vibrate with a low, distant hum. She thinks she is just capturing a nightmare to fill the void that haunts her sleep.

She is wrong. She isn't just painting the void. She is waking it up.

When Elysia Harrington—Manhattan's most enigmatic artist—walks into her bar, the nightmare begins to bleed into the waking world. Elysia doesn't just see the art; she feels the vibration of it. She recognizes the impossible truth hidden in the brushstrokes.

The connection between them is instant, electric, and terrifyingly familiar.

Swept away to a life of high-art and shadows in New York City, Anela finds herself falling for the one person who makes the world feel real. But as their desire deepens, the laws of physics begin to fray. Shadows detach from their owners. Time skips a beat. The impossible patterns in Anela's art start to appear in the city streets.

The system is watching. The room is tightening.

Now, Anela must choose: Stop painting and save the world from collapsing, or follow the path of her art to the terrifying truth behind the sky.

The world is thinner than they thought. And they are the only ones holding the knife.
