Pallas Lost by Jake Morrison When Ensign Vasyli Nikonov’s ship happened upon a drifting derelict, he had no idea how drastically his life was about to change. Not only had the crew been killed in an impossible manner, the Captain of the ship left a reference to the child’s tale of the lost colony of Pallas. Elsewhere in the Fifteen Systems, scholar Eliot Charter gamely starts his own fool’s quest to prove that Pallas is real. Armed with nothing but naivety and knowledge, he hires mercenary Captain Skadi Ulfsdöttir to help him on his journey. Things quickly spiral out of hand, leaving them all wondering if Pallas was truly Lost... Adult • Science Fiction/Dystopian • Science Fiction/Hard SF • Science Fiction |

Cover: Matches the story well Sometimes it feels like science-fiction is becoming a lost art in the world of literary fiction. But then a book like this comes out and reignites my love for space stories. I will never get tired of heist stories (there are two of them here!) and I will never get tired of misfit |
