Description

A high-octane, action adventure future thriller. For the crew of the Keiko, their stay at the Grand House casino on New Samara was supposed to be a well-deserved rest. It didn't last. Captain Ichabod Drift promised that the side-trip to the mining planet Uragan would be a quick in and out - a data retrieval job then back to the tables. He was wrong. When the revolution comes, all you can do is choose a side and hope to get out alive.

Reviews

Great fun . . . Golden Age chic! -- Stephen Baxter
Mike Brook's Dark Run is a rambunctious, rapidfire rollercoaster of a read. Get signed up and strapped in for a helluva ride! -- Michael Cobley author of the Humanitys Fire series
Dark Run is a thrill-ride of non-stop action, wise-crackery and adventure in the vast vaults of outer space. I look forward to revisiting Ichabod Drift and the crew of the Keiko time and again -- Luke Scull
Intrigue, piracy and action, Dark Run is a page turning SF romp with with an edge as sharp as mono-molecular blade. -- Gavin Smith, author of VETERAN and WAR IN HEAVEN
A fast and wry SF adventure full of the deviousness and wit of Firefly. -- Stephen Deas
