Winter Sun (Trilogy of Thousands)

This gripping debut novel by award winning (UCA Podcast 'Couples Choice' Award) writer Jethro J Reading is certain to captivate and engross any audience. When the story opens on Jarsaf,  a simple farmer, a reader prepares for a typical story of rebellion - of a lowly civilian, with all their own complex problems, trying to best the system and return their homeland to a place of justice. But this is not that story.  With the addition of a scarred and troubled soldier, a mysterious ulterior motive, and the hijacking of an age-old governmental system, the plight of a cattle-herd is soon forgotten, in favour of a considerably more noble endeavour.  Set against the backdrop of an interplanetary, interspecies civilisation  recovering from a bloody war, the serpentine journey of a farmer and a war hero, who voyages across the known universe with only a hunch and a hastily-assembled crew to guide him is sure to keep readers turning pages as fast as they can.  With a highly compelling set of characters, a complex, developed universe, and a plot full of unexpected turns, this unique and unexpected example of science fiction is a must-read for both fans of the genre and newcomers alike.
