Shadows in the Stars: Shadows in the Stars, Book 1

Four desperate thieves. One crystal egg. A debt that needs to be repaid.

Cast out by humanity yet burdened with a conscience, Sheni Dupont wouldn’t say he’s found his calling in space piracy. But in the cramped and rusty halls of the ship he shares with reptilian captain Gecki, starfish pilot Xotl and the weird green enigma known only as Alan, he may have found a home.

So when a loan shark threatens to repossess their ship if they don’t pay back the credits they’ve borrowed, the crew of the Silver Hart are forced to take the only job going – stealing a crystal egg from a backwater planet on the brink of cosmic destruction.

Unfortunately, they’re not the only pirates headed for Nasako. A routine heist soon becomes a fight for their lives, with the fate of far more than one hallowed egg at stake.

And somehow Sheni has to do the right thing without tearing his family of misfits apart…

Fans of Terry Pratchett and Becky Chambers will love this page-turning adventure from the author of the bestselling Final Dawn series. Expect explosive action and sharp-tongued anti-heroes in a Sci-Fi universe rich with imagination.
