Ten years ago, after her parents were killed in a terrorist attack, Melanie Armstrong walked away from a military officer’s career to raise her orphaned brother. Since then she's been captaining a tramp freighter – shuffling from world to world, scraping to barely get by, but content that she's made the right decision. But when her ship crashes, authorities make her an offer: take a fifteen-year sentence on a prison world where the average lifespan is a third of that. Or take part in a mission to stop an ancient, and until-now forgotten, robotic warship, the Fenris, from completing its hundred-year-old task of destroying a planet, killing millions. “Spriggs takes the reader through betrayal, loss, unexpected friends and even less expected forgiveness on a non-stop roller-coaster of action.” – Glynn Stewart, author of Starship’s Mage and City in the Sky. “A well-drawn cast of very different characters on a difficult, unpredictable and fast-paced mission. Who the good and bad guys are, is not always obvious. Obvious is boring; Fenris Unchained is not.” – Mackey Chandler, author of Family Law and the April series. less
