Earth is dying. Humanity is on the run. And the war that could decide the fate of the universe may just have begun.
The year is 2179, and humanity’s golden age of space expansion shatters in an instant.
Astronomer Jayne Flynn detects the first undeniable signal of alien intelligence in over a century—just as a battle-scarred, ancient warship erupts from beneath Yellowstone, triggering a cataclysmic supervolcano explosion that wipes out billions and renders Earth uninhabitable.
As chaos spreads across the solar system, desperate survivors look to the Trine, a fleet of mysterious alien vessels that arrive from deep space.
But the Trine are not what they seem. They reveal a horrifying truth—the Graxx, an ancient, galaxy-destroying species, have a terrifying connection with Homo sapiens. And the Trine have been locked in an aeons old war with them.
With the last remnants of humanity fleeing to the stars, a desperate alliance forms between the Earth Defense Fleet (EDF) and the Trine, but trust is fragile, and old hatreds run deep.
Meanwhile, in the shadows, a dangerous cult leader, Saastra Prime, escapes captivity, ready to seize control of the human race and reshape its destiny.
As a Graxx mothership the size of a small moon emerges from Jupiter’s Red Spot, the EDF and the Trine prepare for the battle that may determine whether humanity will rise… or be erased from existence, but is all as it seems?
HELL SPACE is a cinematic, high-stakes sci-fi epic blending the political intrigue of The Expanse, the relentless action of Battlestar Galactica, and the existential dread of Mass Effect. Perfect for fans of Adrian Tchaikovsky, James S.A. Corey, Alastair Reynolds, Andy Weir and Arthur C Clarke to name but a few.
Hell Space Book One – Revelations available at all good bookshops and online at Amazon, Kobo, Google Play, and Apple Books.
Available to pre-order from The Book Guild, Tenby Book Shop, Amazon, Waterstones, Kobo, Apple Books, Google Play and other fine outlets.
