Adrift

100 years ago, the USS Nomad returned from a legendary lost planet without its crew. Today, the Nomad goes back. During the evacuation of their sole surviving colony, humanity's entire fleet of starships is annihilated by their enemies. Only a desperate FTL jump saves the USS Nomad - an ancient scout class vessel, built when Earth still stood - from a similar fate. But the jump results in catastrophic damage to the aging ship: its fusion cores have overloaded. Life support will soon fail. The ship's data logs and navigational charts from the previous journey have been corrupted, leaving them adrift. And someone, amidst the chaotic escape, executed the mission's leader. Wandering the unforgiving expanses, a relentless enemy in pursuit, the Nomad's disgraced captain must find a way to pilot the vessel to the lost paradise at the edge of the universe. But with dissent and distrust threatening to rip the USS Nomad asunder, humanity's last hope of survival might be lost forever.
