About this ebook

The crew of the tramp spaceship Orchid is back in this thrilling sequel to "Orchid in the Void". In the Sol System centuries in the future when space travel is commonplace but still not without danger, former "Out to the Void" script writer turned independent spacer Pete Soñador finds himself having to stop an invasion from Earth and rescue his kidnapped bride from a vengeful, sadistic slave trader on a secret asteroid while teaching square dancing lessons to tourists at a rabbit ranch on Jupiter's moon, Io. Hard science-fiction meets tongue-in-cheek classic space-opera in a fast-paced adventure that you won't be able to put aside!

Author

Steve Whitting

Geologist, cyclist, home brewer, and author all describe Steve Whitting. His formative years were spent in Fayetteville, Arkansas building model rockets, stargazing with his friends, and reading science fiction. Graduating with a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Arkansas in 1978, he had aspirations of becoming the first Geologist to visit the planet Mars. When that didn't pan out, he began writing short fiction in his spare time. Over the years those story concepts grew and eventually coalesced into his first novel, "Orchid in the Void". When he isn't busy pursuing his profession as an Environmental Geologist, he can be found aboard his beloved bicycle cruising along Alligator Bayou Road near Prarieville, Louisiana, concocting ales in his home brewery, or working on his next novel.
