Light the Dark Sky takes readers along on humanity’s First Voyages beyond the solar system into unexplored space by Faster-Than-Light propulsion.

Captain Aurelio Lupetti leads a multi-cultural crew into the unknown aboard humanity's first FTL starship, named after the first vessel to circumnavigate the globe, Ferdinand Magellan��s flagship
Victoria.

Lupetti discovers Earth-class planets everywhere. Some uninhabited, others packed with friendly aliens, others not so welcoming. And he quickly discovers the advantages and drawbacks from flying a ship from a neutral world into a galaxy at the verge of war.

Great new species, colorful characters, romance and conflict and the thrill of first footprints on an unknown world.
Light the Dark Sky will keep you turning pages to find what’s really waiting to greet H-sapiens out there in the depths of starry space.

"Excellent! One of Tom Shepherd's best."
"Love the banter between Aurelio and Ndari. And bringing her brother Kadek aboard was brilliant!"
"Where is Book 3 -- the story MUST go on!"
