WISDOM

by Mark Owen

"A rookie crew, an untested spaceship, an implausible first contact mission of galactic importance...what could go wrong?"



Facing an alien threat, Flax Venture assembles a Pan National crew for a peace mission to Proxima Centauri b. Meanwhile, his friend, Tamarind Chase, builds Starship Emissary and restarts Moonbase Verity, searching for an encoded mystery essential to their mission. Amid personal sacrifices and rising international tensions, the crew embarks on a perilous journey, facing dangers both without and within, as each pursues their elusive path toward wisdom.



Following the cataclysmic events in IMPACT, WISDOM Starship Emissary chronicles the ongoing adventures of extraordinary individuals-the Pan Nationals, trained to solve intractable global problems.



Fans of The Martian, by Andy Weir, or The Expanse, by James S.A. Corey, will love WISDOM Starship Emissary.
