DAW BooksThe captivating cover for LINE OF DESCENT is screaming must read! From the author of Esperance, Adam Oyebanji writes an inventive and twisty thriller that you won't want to put down. When a mysterious kidnapping sparks turmoil on a generational ship, humanity’s bid for the stars faces disaster—perfect for fans of Blake Crouch, Rob Hart, and Andy Weir. Art and Illustration by Natalie Sousa Preorder now, available November 17 ... Turn back now. Archimedes has been en route to Tau Ceti for more than a century, a fifth-generation bubble of humanity. Discipline is tight, so when a junior officer claims they’ve been abducted from outside one of the ship’s bars and released 24 hours later with no memory of what happened, officer Faisal Vasconcelos suspects drunkenness rather than crime. The seemingly routine investigation soon plunges Faisal into a dark mix of politics, terrorism and murder. With senior commanders battling for control of the ship, factions agitating to the turn the vessel around, and a dead body drowned in an artificial womb, Faisal’s alleged kidnapping case turns into something that could blow the ship apart. Literally. With inventive worldbuilding, breakneck pacing, and an interrogation of timely topics from reproductive rights to surveillance states, this sci-fi thriller is not just a gripping space opera: it is chillingly relevant to the present day. #DAWBooks #ScienceFiction #Space
