Till the Engines Fall Silent
(2026)(The eighth book in the Space Pirates! series)
A novel by Mark Voss
One ghost, one gravity well, and zero time to fix the air purifier.
The Meridian is falling apart—literally and emotionally. The reactor’s unstable, the AI thinks Rask is someone called ‘Captain Omega,’ and half the crew hasn’t slept since the coffee machine caught fire. Again.
So when a distress signal comes in from a wreck orbiting a collapsing star—and it features a voice they all thought was dead—they do the obvious thing: go straight toward it.
What they find is worse than a trap. Inside the wreck: buried secrets, a long-lost traitor, and a ticking bomb hidden in the Meridian''s core—courtesy of the Empire.
As time runs out and the star begins its death spiral, the crew must escape an impossible gravity well, survive a mutiny, and figure out which one of them is still sending messages to the enemy.
This time, making it out alive might cost more than just parts and pride.
It might cost them their captain.
Genre: Science Fiction
