The Mercury Rebellion

Assigned to a new post on Mercury, Elfrida Goto has the job from hell ... on a planet that's hotter than hell.

In the year 2287, Mercury is the factory of the solar system. After her bruising experiences in the asteroid belt, Space Corps agent Elfrida Goto is looking forward to a nice quiet job in Human Resources. But she's soon swept up in an election that could lead to the evacuation of the planet's colonists. Elfrida is torn between doing her job and supporting the colonists, who've built a vibrant underground world. When violence threatens, Elfrida turns for help to a reclusive local corporation ... that's hiding a big secret.

An alliance with criminals seems like a small price to pay, but it's not enough to stop the corrupt outsiders who would steal the election. Now the price of peace will be even higher. As violence sweeps over Mercury, Elfrida confronts the evil power that would drive humanity out of space forever. And on a planet where sunlight itself is fatal, she has zero room for error.

The third book in the Solarian War Saga ramps up the suspense in this high-stakes series of space operas edged with dark comedy. Reviewers are raving about the nonstop action, black humor, and plausible scientific speculation that set Felix R. Savage's vision of our interplanetary future apart. Fans of Iain M. Banks, Peter F. Hamilton, and Alastair Reynolds have found a new series of witty, intelligent science fiction thrillers to follow!
