About this ebook

Humanity has escaped the dead Earth, but can they escape their dark flaws?


Distinguished officer Faith Benson seemed headed for a promising career in the Kedraalian Republic Navy. Then came her dead-end assignment to the search-and-rescue ship Pandora.


After an accident sends the Pandora into the demilitarized zone separating the Republic from the brutal Azoren Federation, a series of events pushes the two powers closer to war.


And when war involves starships capable of bombarding planets, there are no winners.


Pick up First Shadow, the first three books in this twisty, suspenseful military space opera tale and find out what's in the shadows.

Really enjoyed these first three books. Nowt overly complex but great story and pace with some good twists. Liked the principal characters - although I wasn't sure who those were until the second book so keeps you on your toes ;)

fast paced, page turning, epic saga that hints at how history tends to repeat itself, through nuanced vocabulary. I've said, 1000's of times, over the years, that "Today's science fiction inevitably becomes tomorrow's science fact."... When you "Crack the spine" on this book, be sure you have time to read it through, else you might find yourself taking a day off work, so as to enjoy the "shadows" on a hot, sunny day... Enjoyl

The interpersonal relationships were convoluted to the point of being a distraction, but overall a pretty good read.
