“The unmistakable sound of a muffled explosion rocks Hannah from an afternoon catnap with a start. Sliding long legs off her workbench, she knocks over a family photo from happier times and sends her smiley-face coffee mug spinning off its magnetized warmer. The lukewarm mug crashes against a metal cabinet, splattering coffee all over the place, “Dammit! What the hell was that?”
– Excerpt from Thundercorp No. 5.
In 2074, three decades after an alien invasion laid waste to human civilization, the struggle to rise from the ashes appears hopeless until enormous spheres materialize above the stricken planet. Spearheaded by pioneering aeronautics mega-mogul Julius Hart and his company, Thundercorp, the moonlike warehouses in strategic low orbits above every continent breathe life into a moribund global economy through merchandise-laden hypersonic drones screaming from the sky.
Working as a drone tech aboard Thundercorp No. 5, Hannah Haig awakens to gunfire and explosions. Fleeing past panicky co-workers dodging terrorists’ flying bullets and poisonous gas attacks, she descends into inhospitable canyons of product-laden shelves, rising stories overhead and receding into dizzying dark depths below her frozen bare feet. Cursing her rookie error with no protection in the low-gravity warehouse designed for spider mechs and drones, the intrepid loner evades trigger-happy eco-terrorists bent on erasing the eyesores from the sky before none other than the indomitable Julius Hart shifts her paradigm onto a slim chance of making it off the doomed Thundercorp No. 5.
Read the complete story behind Hannah Haig’s tranformational inheritance that leads to her ultimate sacrifice in The Blue Spark – The Powers That Be, Book Three.
