The Halo Fold
A stolen tablet containing classified files, leads Edward Virr and the crew of the Gabriel to the distant Halo region of the Milky Way.
They discover an awakening threat, dormant for several hundred thousand years and this time the alien threat is not human, but something from everyone’s darkest nightmare.
Back in GDA space, Admiral Bache Loftt has problems of his own, trying to rebuilt his decimated fleet and can only spare one ship to help, skippered by the navy’s youngest and least experienced captain, Grogun Whipper.
The threat, seemingly a long way away, rapidly escalates and manifests much closer to home. Threatening hundreds of human settled worlds with population extermination, including Earth.
Loyalties, friendships and tempers are tested to breaking point as nothing it seems ever goes to plan.

Author Note:
For the benefit of my awesome fans across the pond, this novel is written in UK English and may include a few colloquialisms and spellings that you don’t recognise. There is, understandably considering the circumstances, a bit of swearing involved. We do swear a bit in England, just put it down to eccentricity, or maybe our spirited Anglo-Saxon heritage.
Another unusual trait of the Brits, is to use humour in stressful situations. Just ask anyone who’s been on active service with the British Armed Forces. It helps to keep one sane!
Now you’re all prepared, I hope you enjoy the yarns.
Cheers for now

About the author
Nick Adams grew up in a small village near Maidstone in Kent, England and right from an early age was a fervent NASA, space and Apollo fan. After watching the first moon landing in 1969 and the subsequent moon missions that followed, he discovered science fiction books and cut his teeth reading Asimov, E. E. Doc Smith and Alan Dean Foster. In more recent times, Andy Weir and Peter F Hamilton to name but two, have joined them on the bookshelves.
After serving in the British Army for several years, Nick became a publican, managing and later owning his own village pubs for a number of years before moving to Brisbane in Australia where he began writing his own space opera, and the Fold series was born.
In late 2018 he returned to the UK, where the next adventures in the series evolved, along with the ‘Bache Loftt’ spin-off series.
Nick writes the kind of stories he would like to read. The Fold Series is set a little in the future and based around upcoming NASA technology. The series features normal everyday people put into extraordinary circumstances, with realistic reactions, humour and language. After all, nobody would say ‘oops’ if a 14km-long alien starship de-cloaked next to them.
Head over to his website to sign up to the Reader Group, and Nick will personally keep you up to date with his bi-monthly newsletters about what novels he’s currently reading, cover reveals, book launch dates and general progress on his current project.
Lastly, don't forget to leave a review if you enjoy the books. It only needs to be a few words and it helps spread the word about these exciting space opera stories.

A personal note from the author
Hi guys.
For the benefit of my awesome readers across the pond, all my novels are written in UK English and may include a few colloquialisms and spellings that you don’t recognise.
There is, understandably, considering the circumstances, a bit of swearing involved too. We do swear a bit in England. Just put it down to eccentricity, or our spirited Anglo-Saxon heritage.
Another strange trait we sometimes have is using humour in really stressful situations. It helps to keep us sane – just ask anyone who’s been on active service in the British Armed Forces.
Cheers everyone, and I hope you enjoy the stories.
Nick Adams
