Description

The Empire will kill him for stealing this ship… but they have to catch it first!

To the Empire the Wanderer was just another booby-trapped ship to claim, and Jess was just another worthless slave to be sacrificed.

Things didn't go to plan. Jess survived the dangers and when he sat in the pilot's chair the ancient ship came to life for the first time in centuries.

Acting on instinct, Jess seized the chance, firing up the engines and fleeing the Imperial forces.

Now Jess and the ancient self-aware ship are on the run, their freedom and their very existence on the line.

The smart thing to do would be to run like hell and never stop, but Jess finds he can't ignore pleas for help from those in danger. With the powerful Wanderer at his command he can truly make a difference… but at what cost?

Reviews for Wanderer's Escape include "In the end, I was gripping the arms of my chair as I rooted for the heroes.", "A fast-paced, can't-put-it-down Sci-Fi." and "One of the best books I've read this year."

  • Smooth

    By nosniborjg
    Not exactly my cup of tea, but very well crafted story and execution. A defect-free novel goes down so smoothly you hardly notice the passage of time. And it’s free! I’m lookimg forward to Book 2.
  • Great job

  • This is a great book

    By Chris@2017
    I really enjoyed this book. Can’t wait to see what happens next! It was full of adventure and fun for the reader.
  • Very young adult

    By Lhdghfvjufb
    If you want a fun action packed young adult space book here you go. You will not be disappointed. This is not a deep, thoughtful space opera but sometimes that’s okay.
  • Good with minor grievance

    By LongNickname0099
    The book was interesting and had me hooked. My one complaint is the author is prone to extended character monologues. Other than that I tip my hat to the author.
  • Excellent up tempo positive

    By Spudman4649
    Powerful heroes help many good read
  • Save your time…

    By Maethe
    Juvenile. WATTPAD worthy, but not for real publication. Reads like adolescent wish fulfillment.
  • Maybe for first graders.

    By ScifiReader9000
    Sorry but this or should have been written in crayon. Couldn’t bring myself to finish the last third of the book no matter how hard I tried. Simplistic to a fault. Just ugh.
