About this ebook

At four, Six had been thrown out to fend for himself in the uninhabitable zone. Ten years later he is doped and shipped off to another planet as an apprentice.

Six was inclined to think that things couldn’t get much worse, but that was before he was thrown into a cell with Diva.

On Valhai, The Sellites live their lives shut inside skyrises. So it’s a big deal for Grace to pluck up the courage to defy regulations and venture outside onto the planet – a small first step that will lead to giant changes in her life. 

She is the only person who can save the donor apprentices – but if she does it will ruin her family, and change her planet forever.

About the author

“... Science fiction at its very best.” Winner, READERS FAVORITE Awards

“... Best speculative fiction ...” Finalist, PARSEC Awards

 

Gillian Andrews lives on an island in the Mediterranean, is passionate about cosmology and writes upbeat adventures set in deep space and unknowable worlds.

 

Her advice to new authors is to keep on writing, come what may. "Your books may even have a longer shelf life than you. Who knows? Those words you liked so much may be read by future generations long after you have been turned back into stardust!"

Gillian Andrews’ latest books are set in the Major Shells universe. There are two trilogies with an interquel in between. The first trilogy is the Interstellar Enforcement Agency (Termination Shock, Interdicted Space and Exceptional Point). These are followed by the interquel, Supershell Storm. Finally the Quantum Heritage trilogy (Slipstream Alley, Spectacular Error and The Last Bridge) finishes the Major Shells arc. She is also the author of the Ammonite Galaxy series and the standalone novel Kelfor, which loosely links both universes.

  

She has also written four Mediterranean Romance novels under the pseudonym of Carla Prince and a collection of predominantly non-fiction short stories under the pseudonym of Titiless Tench.
