A ship, a gun, and a nice teal robe to find one killer on a planet of criminals: will Qays Mendoza get the answers he is looking for? New novel from the bestselling author of the Coronam series.

On the edges of mankind’s domain there is a penal planet called Fresh Start where a sentence is at best exile to five generations, but more likely death in its harsh unforgiving wastes. It is to this planet the empire sends the worst of the worst and it is on this planet that Qays Mendoza searches for his old captain.

The galactic empire is falling, civilization contracts. Fresh Start is abandoned. Without oversight, the planet is wild, without guards; the Oubliette, the supermax prison on the supermax planet, lies open, and the Butcher of Raznak, a killer worse than the one Qays seeks, is on the loose.

With the help of a street waif called Patience, Qays seeks answers. His soul is stained with guilt and his spirit broken by complicity. Religion did not have the answer; duty did not explain it. Birthright and station were not enough. His answers lie somewhere on Fresh Start.

Arvustused

On the Coronam series:

"A clever and exciting collision of space opera, high adventure, and devious politics. Insightful and highly entertaining!" Jonathan Maberry, NY Times bestselling author of RELENTLESS and V-WARS "The worlds of Coronam, with their mixture of old and new technologies, create a unique setting for an ageless story about humanity." Daniel Yocom, Guild Master Gaming "Johnny Worthen is a bold and imaginative writer; his Coronam work is a fascinating look at our troubling history through the lens of tomorrow." Bryan Young, author, BattleTech: Honor's Gauntlet "With Of Kings Queens and Colonies, Johnny Worthen creates an immersive and compelling world populated by vivid characters. As always, his excellent writing is saturated with humor and humanity. Highly recommended." Kate Jonez, Chief Editor Omnium Gatherum "...this is the beginning of an outstanding epic that will have broad appeal, especially to the readers of the Dune saga. Highly recommended for all sf collections." Booklist Starred Review

On The Gaia Chime:

"The Gaia Chime is a mind-bender of a cultural and global horror-thriller that will take you down twists and turns you will never see coming! Highly recommended!!" Jonathan Maberry, NY Times bestselling author of the Joe Ledger thrillers and NecroTek "A chilling discourse on class, culture, and capitalism, underpinned with ancient myth, Johnny Worthens The Gaia Chime is a provocative and visionary near-future narrative, and an unsettling call to action. If you havent already put Worthen on your must-read list, you should rectify that now." Lee Murray, five-time Bram Stoker Awards®-winning author of Grotesque: Monster Stories "The Gaia Chime is a fascinating story with shocking twists. The vivid characters and dialogue that just sings makes reading the latest tale from Johnny Worthen an absolute pleasure. You're going to be delighted or terrified - possibly both." Kate Jonez, Chief Editor Omnium Gatherum "The Gaia Chime fascinated and terrified me. [ ...] A story that delivers an impact on the reader." Daniel Yocom - Guild Master Gaming "A riveting story of personal obsession and epic-scale horror. Pray you never hear the Gaia Chime!" Tim Waggoner, author of Lord of the Feast "A book that grabs you by the lapels, shakes you rigorously and screams at you, if you like your horror bleak, prophetic and packed with sci-fi elements, Johnny Worthens The Gaia Chime, is a book you need in your short, insignificant existence. At the rate at which the world is circling the drain, youve probably not got long left to read it, so time is of the essence. Miss it at your peril." Fan Fi Addict "If you enjoy horror thrillers with a slow-burn plot that gradually ramps up the tension, this book is definitely one to add to your reading list." Mani's Book Corner "Worthen shows himself a master of style and substance" -- Michael R. Collings, 2016 World Horror Convention Grand Master
