Convergent Space has already sold over 10,000 copies.
It made number 1 in the Space Opera bestseller list on Amazon UK and has consistently featured in the top five for more than six months.
In this epic space opera, Earth is a faded galactic power with a chequered past. Blamed for an event 200 years earlier that destroyed thousands of worlds and turned the galaxy upside-down, Earth has been shunned by galactic society ever since.
Now they have a chance to turn that around.
Meanwhile in the outer fringes of the galaxy, a powerful new force is emerging from the ashes. Ruthless and unstoppable, this colossal army is approaching the central planets with one aim – to cleanse the entire galaxy.
Rone Tintet is one of Earth’s immense army of space-faring investigators. She discovers an artefact that may reveal what really happened 200 years ago and resurrect Earth’s fortunes. She embarks on a journey far from home but will there be anything left when she returns?
In Convergent Space these two stories - one in the past, one happening right now - intertwine into a dramatic and unexpected finale.
