Viridian System

Two asteroid miners, three women, one spacecraft, and a hunt for five pieces of a legendary weapon scattered around the galaxy. Big Pete and the Swede bring their latest haul of orichalcum back to Viridium C for a long vacation, but messages and maneuverings from two opposing powers threaten to drag them back to their pasts - pasts they have tried very hard to erase. Second edition 2018.

Big Pete and the Swede, together with Maggie and Dolores, take a holiday in the miners’ new spacecraft while their villa is rebuilt. Pete is been summoned to save his home planet, Corsair, from disaster, so they plot their curved course accordingly. Then they encounter an unmapped wormhole. Aliens, power plays, and a quest form the recipe for this second exciting Viridian System series adventure.

A galactic crisis: the entire comms system destroyed. How will spaceships in flight get home? Dolores is stuck in warp with a very dangerous passenger, Pete gets his shuttle home on manual. Why does anything in close contact with orichalcum fix itself? Just flying through Zanzibar's Rings solves the problem, as the Federation's Fighters find, as they invade the Viridian System's settled planets.

A forced quest for a legendary weapon, a crusade to save a planet that goes horribly wrong, and a galactic disaster that leaves people stranded in space or on the far side of distant planets. The two superpowers fighting for dominance don't care who stands in their way, and will kill, kidnap or destroy to achieve it. All Big Pete and the Swede want is a quiet life with the girls. Some hope.
