About this ebook

SHORT-LISTED for the WATTY AWARD for BEST ORIGINAL SFF NOVEL


IN SPACE, MEDICINE CAN BE MURDER


A mysterious space ship docks at the Conglomerate's Premier Medical Space Station, the Nelson Mandela, where injured, animal-adapted space marines are brought for surgical repair and recuperation. This new ship is devoid of crew. Only oily puddles, clothing, and jewellery are found where people should have been. Alarms start blaring and lockdown doors start slamming, as the station AI tries to isolate the unexposed from those already exposed.


Smart and spunky Lieutenant Dr. Grace Lord, combat surgeon, new to the Nelson Mandela, must now race to find a cure for whatever is dissolving the medical staff and patients, before the Conglomerate decides to destroy the Nelson Mandela to prevent the spread of the deadliest threat the galaxy has ever seen.


If you love Isaac Asimov or James White, you’ll flip for this genre-bending science fiction epic! Find out why readers call it “a unique world, full of genetically-modified humans and androids with personalities and emotions. Wonderful!”


'S.E. Sasaki is a hidden treasure, a powerhouse artistic talent who in Madhouse brings us medical science fiction on a personal, engaging level that is addictive to read, sometimes scary, and always FUN. Recommended!'---Ed Greenwood, internationally bestselling creator of The Forgotten Realms.


'A layered debut that sings odes to the grandmasters of sci-fi.'---Kirkus Reviews

About the author

As a Canadian MD who worked as a rural family physician for over 20 years, and now spend my working hours in the operating room assisting in emergency and elective surgery, I have seen a lot.

The concept of the medical space station in Welcome to the Madhouse and The Grace Lord Series was borne from my experiences in the hospital and operating room. There has never been a dull moment in all my years working as a physician. I wanted to convey the suspense of never knowing what was going to come in the front door and how situations can become dire very fast. I also wanted to share the camaraderie between colleagues that exists in the OR with you. I hope I have achieved that.

When I'm not assisting in surgery or writing the next book, I love to paint and create collages. My collages have won awards at the World Fantasy Convention and Ad Astra. You can see my dragons at my website http://www.sesasaki.com.

I love to travel, scuba dive, downhill ski, kayak, play tennis, ride horses, and I've even ridden an ostrich, once. I have a Maine Coon cat and an Akbash dog who keep my husband and I hopping, ever since our two children grew up (far too fast).
