The Stoic Albatross - Book One of the Great Sphere Series

An Epic Space Fantasy, Sci-Fi Adventure

By: M. Remington Daniels

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Within the Great Sphere, Captain Aventurine Bana finds herself the centerpoint in a vast conspiracy. A struggling transporter on the edges of society, ‘Gem’ Bana is given a fantastic opportunity: take the estranged son of a powerful businessman around the Sphere, and receive a beautiful new ship in exchange.
Quickly caught in a tangle of intrigue, danger, and the looming threat of some outside puppeteer, Bana must navigate the Great Sphere with dry wit, abject terror, and a cool head. Dodging bounties, assassins, and the reach of a Sphere-wide corporation, all she wanted was a good book and the quiet of space… and a little extra profit.

“The Stoic Albatross. That’s the name of my ship.”
