Where do I go to get a refund on a good night’s sleep?” “You can’t leave it there… what happens next?” “Weird alien stuff going down, crazy bunch of heroes. This is what we want. A perfect Space Opera!” "The Swarmers, an intelligent race of space-faring insectoid-like creatures, have always existed on the edge of inhabited space. Whilst many human vessels have succumbed to spurious and random attacks in recent years, all out war with this strange alien race has been avoided. But now, something has changed. Swarmer starcraft, powerful, fast and dangerous are invading TradeCon space and nothing seems able to stop them. With star systems falling to the invaders on a daily basis, a desperate plan is hatched to deal with the aliens once and for all." Incursio is the third book in a four part space-opera series called the Elect Saga. It is set in a distant part of the galaxy filled with pirates, bounty hunters, traders, explorers and strange aliens. The stories are inspired by the space-trading and combat simulation games of the 1980s and 1990s. Dawn Rite Publishing is an independent UK press, founded in 2011. We deal exclusively with fictional works in the SF and Fantasy genres.

Book excerpt: The biggest science fiction series of the decade comes to an incredible conclusion in the ninth and final novel in James S.A. Corey’s Hugo-award winning space opera that inspired the Prime Original series. “An all-time genre classic.” –Publishers Weekly (starred review) Hugo Award Winner for Best Series The Laconian Empire has fallen, setting the thirteen hundred solar systems free from the rule of Winston Duarte. But the ancient enemy that killed the gate builders is awake, and the war against our universe has begun again. In the dead system of Adro, Elvi Okoye leads a desperate scientific mission to understand what the gate builders were and what destroyed them, even if it means compromising herself and the half-alien children who bear the weight of her investigation. Through the wide-flung systems of humanity, Colonel Aliana Tanaka hunts for Duarte’s missing daughter. . . and the shattered emperor himself. And on the Rocinante, James Holden and his crew struggle to build a future for humanity out of the shards and ruins of all that has come before. As nearly unimaginable forces prepare to annihilate all human life, Holden and a group of unlikely allies discover a last, desperate chance to unite all of humanity, with the promise of a vast galactic civilization free from wars, factions, lies, and secrets if they win. But the price of victory may be worse than the cost of defeat. "Interplanetary adventure the way it ought to be written." —George R. R.

Book excerpt: After 25 years of service, Commander John Forest has had enough of the fleet. He is retiring to a real job on Earth, far from the frontier and the fleet to start a new life. His intervention in an experimental fighter at the Battle of the Markus Nebula over 20 years ago turned the tide against the Globurs and made him a hero. Now he just wants to change his life and get away from the fleet.The Globurs are the first intelligent species ever encounter by humanity in hundreds of years of exploration. First contact was during a survey and details are scarce as no one survived. Rim systems were attacked and overrun over the next few years. Globurs probe for weakness and attack without mercy. No attempts to communicate with them have ever received a reply. Recovered prisoners are insane, but the Globur do not take prisoners anymore.The tide was turned by a new strategy and a decisive battle at the Markus Nebula. The Globurs were pushed back and a stalemate developed along the rim. The stalemate means attacks and raids on civilian outposts and merchant shipping. In the interstellar space along the rim, fleet outposts and patrolling task forces continue to defend humanity. The imperial senate calls the war and skirmishes an "incursion." Over the last 20 years, things have gotten a lot quieter. No one has seen a Globur capital ship in years. The only thing the core worlds care about is the unnecessary cost of maintaining the fleet. Not much news ever really gets back to the core worlds and the "incursion is all but forgotten. Only those on the rims worlds volunteer for fleet service to protect their worlds. Things on the rim are changing. When a heavy fleet task force is savagely mauled and manages to limp back to their outpost, the unthinkable is revealed. The Globurs have an advantage that puts every outpost and rim world at risk. Fleet defenses, long relied upon to detect incursions and dispatch intercepts, may be rendered useless. Ships are lost and not easily replaced. The fleet cannot sustain the current loss rate and something big may be coming. The Senate agrees to dispatch the fleet's greatest hero with their finest ships on a "goodwill tour" that covers a desperate gamble.All this should have nothing to do with John Forest. He is retired, and his augmentation has been permanently deactivated. He has gone home and settled into a new job on Earth. He even has a new girlfriend and is beginning to enjoy himself as his replacement takes over his former duties on the rim overseeing the fighter operations aboard the flagship of his former task force. His new girlfriend is a reporter - and a smart one. She thinks he is being watched. John thinks that is ridiculous, but he does start to wonder. Sure he was a hero - but that was a long time ago. Who would possibly be interested in him?Only a few know the shocking secret he hides and John isn't one of them.

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Grand Admiral Thrawn faces the ultimate test of his loyalty to the Empire in this epic Star Wars novel from bestselling author Timothy Zahn. “If I were to serve the Empire, you would command my allegiance.” Such was the promise Grand Admiral Thrawn made to Emperor Palpatine at their first meeting. Since then, Thrawn has been one of the Empire’s most effective instruments, pursuing its enemies to the very edges of the known galaxy. But as keen a weapon as Thrawn has become, the Emperor dreams of something far more destructive. Now, as Thrawn’s TIE defender program is halted in favor of Director Krennic’s secret Death Star project, he realizes that the balance of power in the Empire is measured by more than just military acumen or tactical efficiency. Even the greatest intellect can hardly compete with the power to annihilate entire planets. As Thrawn works to secure his place in the Imperial hierarchy, his former protégé, Eli Vanto, returns with a dire warning about Thrawn’s homeworld. Thrawn’s mastery of strategy must guide him through an impossible choice: duty to the Chiss Ascendancy, or fealty to the Empire he has sworn to serve. Even if the right choice means committing treason. Praise for Thrawn: Treason “Another excellent addition to the new canon . . . Thrawn: Treason will reward you thoroughly for your time.”—GeekMom “If you’ve ever enjoyed a Thrawn story—whether that was Heir to the Empire and its sequels or Zahn’s new novels—you’ll find more of what you enjoy in Treason.”—Dork Side of the Force
