Fearless

"Fast-paced, gripping hard SF with death in hard vacuum waiting at every turn." - Arthur C. Clarke Award winner Adrian Tchaikovsky AD 2118. Humanity has colonised the Moon, Mars, Ceres and Europa. Captain Ellisa Shann commands Khidr, a search and rescue ship with a crew of twenty-five, tasked to assist the vast commercial freighters that supply the different solar system colonies. Shann has no legs and has taken to life in zero-g partly as a result. She is a talented tactician who has a tendency to take too much on her own shoulders. Now, while on a regular six-month patrol through the solar system, Khidr picks up a distress call from the freighter Hercules… This is the first book in Allen Stroud's epic science fiction trilogy, The Fractal Series, which features the novels: 'Fearless', 'Resilient' and 'Vigilance'.
