The Adventures of Wil Calder
(2017)(The first book in the Space Rogues series)
A novel by John Wilker
Wil Calder is an astronaut when his experimental spacecraft breaks down near Neptune. What a crappy way to go, don't you think? Alone in the deep dark of space.
Except that's not how the story ends, it's how it begins. He's rescued by alien smugglers, his pod sold for scrap.
Then he's given a choice; join the crew or step out the airlock without his spacesuit. Which would you choose?
Now, years later Wil is a lonely space smuggler himself looking for a crew because he's bored out of his skull.
Because it turns out, space is lonely and boring, so Wil could use some friends.
Before Wil can even enjoy having a crew to call his own, they're pushed into the center of a plot to start an intergalactic war. They had no part in starting it, and aren't remotely qualified to stop it, but here they are.
What would you do? Find a quiet bar on a backwater planet!
That's not an option for Wil and the crew of the Ghost though. Between epic space battles and a daring heist, the crew uncovers a dark secret. A secret that they can't let stay in a dark.
Did we mention that the fate of the entire galaxy rests on his shoulders? No pressure, Wil!
Genre: Science Fiction
