Stranded on Haven by William Zellmann
Requirements: EPUB or MOBI Reader, 1.0MB
Overview: Jerd Carver wasn’t Captain of the star freighter Startrader. No, he was just a slum-bred cargo handler, until everyone aboard was killed except him. With the help of the ship’s Artificial Intelligence, he located the nearest known settled star, some ten light years away; thirty years away in normal space. There is, however a system just less than one light year away that might have an Earthlike planet. It does have one, and it also has a colony. Haven was settled 500 years ago, but a catastrophe prevented it from landing their colony ship, which was designed to provide computer information services for a century. Without the ship’s services, the colony has reverted, and is now at a prespace level. After two years in normal space, Jerd is desperate for human company. But the colony has airships, radios, and a patchwork of small nations. What kind of welcome can he expect? Startrader and the colony ship both contain information which would let any of the six nations occupying Haven take over the planet. Will the nations welcome him and his ship? Will they race to kill him and seize Startrader and its wonders? Will he face spies and assassins, or will he find a new home?
