THE SHADOW OF ARCADIA

THE AUGMENT SAGA: BOOK TWO

Open for Blurb

SIDERA SILERE:.
LET THE STARS.
REMAIN SILENT.


Nestled in the shadow of a derelict alien warship, the Martian city of Arcadia Landing shines as a beacon of humanity’s golden future. There, United Nations representatives gather to sign a new international treaty; a stepping-stone towards global unity. But when a dangerous faction born of an unlikely blend of isolationists and alien-worshippers attacks the city, the hope of unity lies scattered among the ruins.

Heartbroken, Captain James Fowler must work together with Nate Rifkin, the rueful captain of the Magellan, to bring those responsible to justice. But a deadly encounter with the cabal’s enigmatic masked leader draws James into a deeper mystery stretching back nearly fifty years.

With the help of Capt. Erin Pritchard, and anachronistic force of nature, Capt. April Rose-Hartley, they investigate the links to James and Angela’s past to uncover the identity of this murderous figurehead, track him down, and put a stop to his grand plans for humanity.

WHAT READERS ARE SAYING:

“This book was a joy to read. Having already read the previous books, it was fascinating to see how Fowler's friends and relatives, all much older than he appears due to his lack of aging, are involved in the story. It also shows a compassionate side to him as he struggles with his own inner demons.”
— Barry Ryerson, author of The Magic Circle

“A fast-paced, edge of your seat thriller.”
— Amazon Reviewer

“An excellent sci-fi thriller that goes from strength to strength.”
— Amazon Reviewer

“I rarely find as successful a blend of science, intrigue, and mystery as I have with this series.”
— Amazon Reviewer

“Alan K. Dell is not afraid to keep putting his main characters in danger or hack them off after we have invested time in getting to know them. I feel Dell has hit the nail on the head here when I’m constantly concerned for a number of characters well being as they venture into the next deadly situation.”
— Goodreads Reviewer
