Produktbeschreibung
In a world of pirates and murderous ghosts, one naval cadet must choose between loyalty and survival. In the Level's Naval Academy, officer candidate Silas Hunt stumbles across a secret that could get him hanged for treason. The only hope he has to save his own life and to find justice is to join up with a ruthless pirate captain, a woman known as Mad Dog-even if it means sacrificing everything he's spent his life working for. The Verity is just a ship of the line, but for Stacks-born Captain Hollis Ives, it's not just her first command. It's her one chance to prove that a woman from the slums can handle a high-ranking naval position-even if it means accepting a posting that's likely to be a death sentence. Treasure Island meets Master and Commander with a science-fiction twist in R.M. Olson's thrilling new space opera series, The Devil and the Dark.
Autorenporträt
R.M. Olson writes queer, feel-good space opera, featuring diverse casts, found families, and loads of action. R.M. has ridden the Trans Siberian railway, jumped off the highest bungee jump in the world, gone cage-diving with great white sharks, faced down a charging buffalo bull, and knows how to milk a goat. Currently they reside in Alberta, Canada with their four children, three cats, and a dog the size of a small bear. R.M. goes hiking and skiing more often than they probably have time for, eats more chocolate than is probably good for them, and reads more books than is probably prudent.
