Fool's Gambit
(2015)(A book in the Confederation Reborn series)
A Story by Simon James Cox and Bernard Schaffer
In the lawless regions of the galaxy, Confederation rule has dwindled. Now the gangsters and smugglers are doing their best to make a quick buck, and maybe just survive.
Knox, a disgraced Confederation officer, is hired by a mysterious woman to escort cargo across dangerous territory. It's a payday better than anything he's ever seen...but there's a catch. He'll be in the company of two others, and they might be more deadly than anything that waits for them out in space.
Based on the next chapter of Sci Fi's most beloved saga, Fool's Gambit combines cyberpunk and space opera, along with the nastiness of galactic slave trade.
Genre: Science Fiction
