Ruthless Aliens are attacking the fringes of the Federation. Humankind have been forced into a chaotic withdrawal from dozens of conquered systems. The only way to delay the enemy's march is to create hundreds of fake colonies. If that doesn't work, the Fleet will be forced to confront the invaders in a series of open battles, risking its annihilation. Politicians, however, disregard consequences. Their goal is to remain in power, even at the expense of billions dead. Therefore, the staff of the third metasector must meet the requirements of the Federation Council and prevent the destruction of the only forces that can defend Humankind. But there’s another dimension to this war, more personal. Major Darski stands up to fight for the colonists he had to leave on the Ulietta’s Delta.
“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
