The Kryl invaded in the dead of night.
The Nevers family had to flee. Yuzosix, once their home, must be left behind.
Along the way, young Elya Nevers develops a strange habit... he begins to collect bot parts. Something about it soothes him.
But this strange obsession soon catapults Elya into an inescapable conflict, one that will shape the man he becomes.
And plant the seed of his destiny.
Spare Parts is the first novella in the Starfighter Origins space opera adventure series. For fans of space fleet and galactic empire sci-fi, as well as readers of Orson Scott Card, Larry Niven, Robert Heinlein, and John Scalzi. This action-packed, character-driven science fiction adventure is filled with space stations, interstellar refugees, and lovable robot sidekicks.
After you read this, try M.G. Herron's Relics of the Ancients series, where Elya's adventures as an ace starfighter pilot in the Solaran Fleet continue. Enjoy!
M.G. Herron writes science fiction and fantasy stories for adrenaline junkies.
His books explore new worlds, futuristic technology, ancient mysteries, various apocalypses, and the vagaries of the human experience.
His characters have a sense of humor (except for the ones who don't). They stand up to strange alien monsters from other worlds...unless they slept through their alarm again.
Like ordinary people, Herron's heroes try to make the world a better place, and sometimes screw things up.
I mean, would it really be a normal week if Harrison didn't get stuck in a repeating time loop? Or if Caledonia forgets (again) to set her lasers to stun and accidentally brains someone in a bar brawl? (I really think she does it on purpose, the scoundrel).
New readers can try out a bunch of Herron's books and stories for free at www.mgherron.com.
