The Asgard fleet-carrier miraculously avoids destruction during the Aliens’ attack on the Earth. When flying in hyperspace, it breaches the event horizon of a massive black hole and travels onward more than one hundred and fifty years. Admiral Rutta's crew reappears in normal space long after the exodus of Humankind ended. There are only countless fields of lost and long-forgotten battles left in the Galaxy. However, onboard the ships belonging to the squadron of the last core-carrier, there are enough people for human civilization to be reborn. For this to be possible, Asgard must complete one final mission: embark on the trail of doom and discover all the secrets of the Aliens, both ma'lahn and those who came to avenge them.
“Robert J. Szmidt shows a truly remarkable imagination, and tells the story with charm and originality. I highly recommend it.”
Mike Resnick, Hugo and Nebula award winner
“Easy to Be a God is an exciting beginning to an epic saga of space exploration. Morrisey and his crew of daring, corrupt rogues will hold you breathless as they loot the wrecks of spaceships – until they find the one that could change everything in the Galaxy.”
Nancy Kress, winner of the Hugo and Nebula awards
“Robert J. Szmidt writes on a vast canvas. His stories are ambitious space opera that will capture your imagination.”
Kevin J. Anderson, co-author of the Dune series, author of The Dark Between the Stars
“With the right tech, it's easy to be a god. But as Robert J. Szmidt points out in this impressive novel, to be a god for the right reasons, sometimes you have to spend a few years in Hell, first.”
David Weber, founder of Honorverse
“A fast-paced tale of a piratical salvage crew who find more than they expected when they discover an ancient Alien artefact. An engaging story.”
Jack Campbell, author of the best-selling series Lost Fleet
