About this ebook
Shortlisted for the Arthur C. Clarke Award
***Paradise-1, David Wellington's gripping new survival horror set in the deepest reaches of space, is out now***
'An edge-of-your-seat tale of first contact'
Gareth L. Powell
'A terrifying tour de force . . . Gripping authenticity and an uncompromising white-knuckled pace' James Rollins
'Timely and terrifying, The Last Astronaut propels us deep into the mysteries of space . . . breathless, compulsive reading' Christopher Golden
A huge alien object has entered the solar system and is now poised above the Earth. It has made no attempt to communicate.
Out of time and options, NASA turns to its last living astronaut - Commander Sally Jansen, who must lead a team of raw recruits on a mission to make First Contact.
But as the object reveals its secrets, Jansen and her crew find themselves in a desperate struggle for survival - against the cold vacuum of space, and something far, far worse . . .
'Great action, knockout characters, scarily believable science' Jackson Ford

To claim that native Tasmanians just stopped reproducing and going extinct at their own when meeting Western colonists, is rather controverse by the author. Just think your part.
