Reviews

'This was my first experience of the 'Elite' universe, and it was fantastic! James writes beautifully; his characters and imagery are completely compelling, and I could not put this down. I really hope there's more to come.'

Amazon Review



'As the last of the first tranche of official Elite fiction, it was definitely worth the wait. The story is deep enough that I'm sure I'll pick up new things on subsequent readings. A fast paced story loaded with enough of the usual suspects for antagonists, with every character having depth and believability. Will good triumph over evil and will there be casualties along the way? Is everyone what they seem, or are intrigue and deception the way of life, that people end up living.

I couldn't put this book down and thoroughly enjoyed it.'

Goodreads review



'A good read for fans who would like to get in the mood for the upcoming Elite:Dangerous computer game relaunch. It's all in there: space, planets, spaceships, cargo, scoops, escape pods, ultra-evil Thargoids, you name it...'

Author Bio:

A fan of science-fiction since watching ancient episodes of Blake's Seven, Space 1999, Dr Who, and yes, Buck Rogers, T. James gleefully made a Cobra MkIII his home when he first discovered the Elite game for the BBC 'B' back in 1984. As a result his mother had to undergo separation counselling before coming to terms with his attachment to a cream box, a fourteen-inch portable colour TV, and line-drawings that exploded into dots when he shot them.



Taller, hairier, and a little more articulate thirty years later, when the opportunity came along to write a novel set in the Elite: Dangerous universe he seized it with both hands. After eighteen months of wrestling, he now has it in a headlock. Pacified, his love for everything Elite is yours to read - if you want to.
