The Initial Fold

What would you do if you materialised inside an alien starship?

It's 2049, and NASA-sponsored physicist Edward Virr is on the cusp of man's greatest breakthrough – the ability to fold space and travel faster than light.

He personally tests NASA's futuristic prototype fold ship with a hand-picked crew. But as disaster strikes the first mission, Ed begins to suspect that he isn't the only one developing the new technology.

Discovering there's a lot more at stake than first contact, Ed soon realises that Earth's very survival depends on his ability to solve a crime of galactic proportions.

Join Edward Virr and his rag-tag crew as they undertake their first space adventure into the depths of the Milky Way.

Author Note:

For the benefit of my awesome fans across the pond, this novel is written in UK English and may include a few colloquialisms and spellings that you don't recognise. There is, understandably considering the circumstances, a bit of swearing involved. We do swear a bit in England, just put it down to eccentricity, or maybe our spirited Anglo-Saxon heritage.

Another unusual trait of the Brits, is to use humour in stressful situations. Just ask anyone who's been on active service with the British Armed Forces. It helps to keep one sane!

Now you're all prepared, I hope you enjoy the yarns.

Cheers for now
Nick Adams
