Professor Saul Midian – one of humanity’s most celebrated scientists – is bankrupt and shamed in front of the entire solar system. But his disgrace was all a ruse. His discovery of element 115 on Pluto – a substance with the ability to warp space and time – is far too valuable to share with humanity. That is why Tyauna Riddigan – Callistan Princess and bastard daughter of the most powerful man in the solar system – has manipulated the media and forced Professor Midian to accompany her team of mercenaries to Pluto so she can secure the discovery for herself. But she is not the only one who wants the prize. One of her mercenaries is not what he seems. A master of infiltration has joined the expedition and he will do anything to obtain the truth. None of them will be prepared for what they find. Pluto holds a powerful secret and the truth may destroy them all.

Thanks Kynan Waterford for writing one of the best sci-fi novels I've ever read. So many thrills and spills, incredible suspense and high adventure. Mind Blowing physics concepts excited me as much as the facinating unfoldment of the plot. It ended with me thinking that imaginative and inventive scifi can hardly get better. 5 stars all the way from me Kynan.
Pluto, as it turns out, is more than a collection of frozen gases and rocky rubble. It holds an element that empires and corporations would war over. There are characters in this book that you quickly come to detest and others you find yourself gradually warming up to as new friends. One has the ability and technology to become a copy of anyone. He is an inquisitive defender of the truth. The book is filled with action,intrigue, and imaginative settings. I thoroughly enjoyed this fanciful tale!
I received this ebook in exchange for an honest review.
A solar system full of hateful characters again. Really no one in this book to care about or like. The last couple of chapters showed a bit of promise. Still pretty disjointed though. The author says he doesn't know how the book will end while he's writing it. Yeah, that kind of shows.
