Scorch
In the vastness of space, the deepest mysteries are personal.
The aftershock of Tul Vaga's explosive demise threatens the Known Universe, the unstable core of ricosium opening a potential gateway for the deadly Wanashuk. As whispers grow of a universe beyond the known, Tayne knows he must cross those forbidden boundary markers. To do so, he seeks an elusive figure, a woman interwoven with memories from a life he once knew. She holds the key to crossing into the uncharted, where both sanctuary and answers might await.
But the universe is not kind to fugitives. Betrayed on a bustling space station and pursued by relentless intergalactic enforcers, every escape route seems to close in on Tayne and his crew. With the assistance of an unexpected ally—a chatty starship sales droid—they must navigate treacherous terrains and outmaneuver those who wish them captured.
As Tayne's quest spirals deeper into the cosmic unknown, shadows from his past emerge. The woman is but one link to bygone days. Yet another, more ominous specter lurks, its connection to Tayne chillingly personal. As the stars unveil their mysteries, one looming question in the dance of destiny, who casts the longest shadow?

About the author
Hadwin Fuller
19 books8 followersHadwin Fuller is the author of the space opera series Star Inferno. He writes sci-fi novels packed to the air seals with blaster brawls, space dogfights and misfit crews of loveable weirdos who are forced to band together to save the universe.
Like most sci-fi writers, Hadwin is the victim of a misspent youth (he blames his parents) in which his head was buried far too often in sci-fi novels and far too rarely in schoolbooks. It is from this vast expanse of wasted time that he channels his inner sci-fi writer.
Hadwin lives in Vietnam with his wife, newborn baby and robot vacuum cleaner. When he’s not pressing his eyeballs up against the display of his e-reader, Hadwin can be found blasting around town on his motorbike, loafing around in coffee shops and eating his way through every Vietnamese food they have a name for.
