A young light sailing Prepper finds himself stranded on an unfamiliar planet where he must navigate dangerous encounters to survive. This dystopian sci-fi adventure series opener is full of thrilling action and perfect for young readers ages 8 and up.
TOM RAYNOR spent every hour of every day wishing he was somewhere else-anywhere else that was outside the interplanetary city-ship that he had called home for all eleven years of his life.
When Tom accidentally initiates the autopilot of a commissioned light sail ship, he finds himself careening through space toward a planet thought to be uninhabitable for generations. Once the runaway ship lands, Tom fumbles through misadventures and near-death experiences instigated mainly by his increasingly-becoming-a-problem curiosity and impatience.
Can the young Prepper, untrained for sail flight in space, survive a terrestrial visit? And will his antics keep him from ever becoming an elite light sailor? That is-if he ever makes it back to his home city-ship again...
The Vesta Chronicles: Sunchaser is the exhilarating opening novel of a new middle grade dystopian sci-fi adventure series. Set within a backdrop of realistic and classic science fiction plot details, this traditional hero's journey will keep you turning the page and rooting for our young, spirited solar sailing hero from scene one!
