Humanity is crushed onto seven small worlds, and an enigmatic alien super-culture sets impossible goals to qualify for contact. A discharged mental patient finds himself bankrupt; his escape is to venture further into the cosmos than he ever dreamed.
Stephen K Stanford hails from Melbourne, Australia and misspent a youth devouring his fathers’ vast “golden age” collection of Science Fiction. His debut novel Jubilee, a witty space opera, will be released in February 2024 by Flame Tree Press.
