Book Synopsis The Outback Stars by : Sandra McDonald
Download or read book The Outback Stars written by Sandra McDonald and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2013-05-14 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lieutenant Jodenny Scott is a hero. She has the medals and the scars to prove it. She's cooling her heels on Kookaburra, recovering from injuries sustained during the fiery loss of her last ship, the Yangtze, and she's bored -- so bored, in fact, that she takes a berth on the next ship out. That's a mistake. The Aral Sea isn't anyone's idea of a get-well tour. Jodenny's handed a division full of misfits, incompetents, and criminals. She's a squared-away officer. She thinks she can handle it all. She's wrong. Aral Sea isn't a happy ship. And it's about to get a lot unhappier. As Aral Sea enters the Alcheringa -- the alien-constructed space warp that allows giant settler-ships to travel between worlds, away from all help or hope -- Jodenny comes face to face something powerful enough to dwarf even the unknown force that destroyed her last ship and left her with missing memories and bloody nightmares. Lieutenant Jodenny Scott is about to be introduced to love. Author Sandra McDonald brings her personal knowledge of the military, and of the subtle interplay between men and women on deployment, to a stirring tale that mixes ancient Australian folklore with the colonization of the stars.

Book excerpt: Opal, snakes, and supernatural beings. In Outback Australia, there’s more than one thing that’ll kill you…and it’s not entirely human. Deep in the harsh and unforgiving Australian Outback lies the sleepy opal mining town of Solace. Frequently bypassed by all but the desperate, there’s nothing spectacular about it…on the surface. Solace is a haven for supernatural outcasts. A witch runs the general store, a vampire cuts and polishes opal, the mechanic is a werewolf, a fae is the local layabout, and an elemental works the mine. Everyone has a past, and the Exiles of Solace are no exception. But when a curious new arrival appears in town, they’ll do whatever it takes to protect their home…and the secrets each of them would die to protect. Welcome to Solace, Outback Australia, where deep underneath the iconic red earth, lies more than glittering opal. Outback Spirit is the first book in Australian Supernatural: Origins, a magical series set in the red heart of Outback Australia where myth and magic live alongside the harsh and unforgiving land.
