Supernova: Light Storm

 beI've just finished a second draft of Supernova based on the critiques I received from the CSFG Novel Critique Group. Many thanks to Rob, Dion and the rest of the group. I have revisited the overarching story and at this stage I'm looking at doing a trilogy. The first book will be called Light Storm, the second will Destiny Calling and the third I haven't yet got a title for.

The theme for book one will be trust. I've recast the main protaganist Nova Dawn. Instead of the PHD student she will be a little older and working for Robotica Corporation as an AI expert. Her best friend and flatmate, Cynthia Lee will be a lawyer. Their friendship is one of the foundations on which Nova draws her strength but Nova is about to be thrown into danger. 

Here's the elevator pitch for the first book:

​Truth may be the first casualty of war but trust is a close second. Nova Dawn is a robotics AI expert called up to respond to what may be first contact with an alien threat to mankind’s toehold in the stars. She’s about to discover the truth about the father that abandoned her and about the alien menace that is already closer than anyone is aware of. She is about to find out what she is really capable of and who she can really trust. But will humanity trust her to rise to the occasion and enter the light storm that is Supernova.

What Our READERs Are Saying

"action packed story which develops the psychology of the characters and the politics of the era"
"the plot is structured...the pace is fast...I really got into it and enjoyed it as something a little different."
" Excellent: An absorbing (and strangely romantic) vision of inter-species warfare in the distant future."
