Last month I debuted Fleet: The Reach, the first part of my dystopian maritime science fiction adventure.  Part Two: Wide Open will be hitting the Amazon Kindle store in a few week. If you’ve read Fleet: The Reach and are are looking for a way to get your Fleet fix, you can check out the short story Genesis, featuring a few secondary characters discussing the history of the fleet.

You can also listen to me discuss Fleet on the Variation, Selection, Inheritance podcast with Randall Hayes – Episode 65, Andrew Thaler, Unemployed Oceanaut.

And with that, I’d like to unveil the cover for Fleet: Wide Open. Enjoy!
