Light Chaser

By Peter F. Hamilton & Gareth L. Powell
Light Chaser by Peter F. Hamilton & Gareth L. Powell digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

In Peter F. Hamilton and Gareth L. Powell's action-packed sci-fi adventure LIGHT CHASER, a love powerful enough to transcend death can bring down an entire empire.

Amahle is a Light Chaser – one of a number of explorers, who travel the universe alone (except for their onboard AI), trading trinkets for life stories.

But when she listens to the stories sent down through the ages she hears the same voice talking directly to her from different times and on different worlds. She comes to understand that something terrible is happening, and only she is in a position to do anything about it.

And it will cost everything to put it right.

At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Slightly Smiling Face“This was definitely a wild ride for me. The opening chapter throws a punch and gets you hooked. I'm not going to spoil it but the story follows Amhale who's a light chaser, whose job is to visit the distant planets humans have settled in to trade and exchange gifts. She's been doing it for centuries until one day she realizes someone's been sending her messages in all her visits and it's the same person. What happens next is how she decodes this message and how she acts upon it. It will be a fun read, pacy and entertained but at some points you kinda get dragged on and it can be confusing to understand the world building. Mind you the world building is really good but if you're a newbie reader you might wanna read some paragraphs a couple of times to fully understand what's going on. I'd recommend to give this book a try and it will entertain for sure.”
