Led together by fate and determination, Dice has to save his fated, keep his crew alive and at bay, and worst of all, save his cub, who is nothing but a pawn for his enemies.

Ambition (The Long Haul Book 1)

by Geoff North

During an age of dwindling energy resources and greedy corporate expansion, Earth receives a warning from a not too distant star system: We are aware of your existence. We will end you.

The colossal mining vessel Ambition undergoes a militarized refit and is sent to confront the alien threat of Pegasi 51. Catastrophic events along the way stretch a seventy year voyage into a seven century odyssey. All communication to and from home has been severed, and the civilization waiting ahead has remained ominously silent.

Captain Ly Sulafat, Ambition's 30th - and likely last - commander, leads this final generation of weary travelers into a hostile star system, ill-prepared, and far too inexperienced to confront what awaits them.

The seven hundred year journey has ended. Time for war.
