About this ebook

One starship, six friends, 10,000 lives in the balance...


Young captain-for-hire Kitra Yilmaz has gotten her first contract: escort the mysterious Princess of Atlántida beyond the Frontier and find her a new world. It's a risky job, fraught with the threat of pirates, dangerous squatters, and rising romantic tensions. Still, Kitra and her crew are up for anything - until they find a lush world, perfect for settlement...with an enormous ghost ship already in orbit. What secret does the crippled vessel hide? And is Kitra ready to take responsibility for its precious cargo?


Praise for the Kitra Saga:

"[The Kitra Saga] has a lot to offer: a diverse crew, convincing alien worlds, and an overall sense of adventure and companionship - with all the ups and downs it comes with." - Robin Rose Graves, Parallel Worlds Magazine "Kitra is successful in providing a compelling action/adventure tale while maintaining an emotional drive that proves to be the heart of the story... the reader is bound to fall in love with the characters and the relationships that develop along the way."

- Dark Matter Magazine
