SHARDS OF EARTH is an extraordinary work of the imagination. We are transported to the far-future, following a war that could have extinguished humanity. For fifty years, space had been silent, the war’s heroes forgotten. Now mankind’s enemy is back, but is someone else forcing their hand? If so who – or what – is this new aggressor?
Idris discovers something strange, abandoned, as his salvage vehicle combs isolated tracts of space. It’s clearly the work of the Architects – but is this foe returning? And if so, why? Hunted by gangsters, cults and governments, Idris and his crew race between the stars, hunting for answers. For they now possess something of incalculable value, and many would kill to own it. This will be a must-read for those who love Peter F. Hamilton, Stephen Baxter and Iain M. Banks
Adrian Tchaikovsky says of the deal: ‘I am absolutely delighted to launch this new space opera. I had a blast writing the first volume and I’m looking forward to everywhere the series is going to go.’
Bella Pagan commented, ‘Adrian is at the top of his game when it comes telling an incredible story. And this new book will wow his readers. It has all the amazing plotting, wonderful characters and big ideas that we’ve come to love from his work.’
SHARDS OF EARTH will be published in spring 2021. Tchaikovsky’s next book is THE DOORS OF EDEN, publishing on 20th August this year.
