New Starship: Discoveries
(2022)(The second book in the Protagonist Wars series)
A novel by Matt Fatek
PLEASE NOTE: Feel free to read the first two books in the series in any order—they both will work just fine! This is deliberate—both storylines are intertwined, but they do not necessarily impose, which part in the series should be read first.
The first human interstellar flight.
A terrorist organization working against all sanity.
And a terrifying discovery to be made just outside the Solar system.
Humanity is working tirelessly at getting ready to travel to the stars and spread its eggs around several cosmic baskets.
Julius Cousteau, a long-thought-dead former captain of a failed mission to the Moon from the 2030s, is now working together with a shadow-government agency to introduce mysterious alien technology, that he has been working on with his ancient alien brokers, to the public. Meanwhile, trying not to ruin Earth's economy and without spreading fear and horror at the fact that people are no longer alone in the universe. Because people still think they're the pinnacle of civilization. Boy, are they going to be surprised when the aliens come knocking at their door!
Little does he know that his estranged granddaughter, Marie, who has no clue that he is even still alive, becomes tied up with some shady characters, who not only wish to do really terrible things to her, but also — in the course of their terrorist activities — to humanity's chance at winning an intergalactic war. A war that is inevitably coming and closer than one would ever think. Do terrorists know that they are essentially helping the wrong side in this war?
Will humanity's first contact with alien antagonists be its last? Can humanity survive its galactic infancy and thrive, or will it wither and die where all others had perished?
Book 3 will be published sometime in 2023!
Genre: Science Fiction
