    About this audiobook

    A devastating virus. Humanity’s final hope. One man stands between a second chance and the end of the world.

    On a six-year journey to Gliese 581g, Zarmina’s World, Daniel Medry and a crew of scientists plan to explore a brand-new world. But when a man-made virus wipes out most of Earth’s population and leaves the rest infertile, their exploration mission becomes humanity’s only hope for survival.

    Alone in deep space, some worry that a series of equipment malfunctions may not be accidental. As their ship's issues become critical, some fear that someone onboard wants to keep them from making planetfall. With time running out, Daniel must stop the saboteur before humankind's last hope of survival is crushed in the unforgiving vacuum of space.

    Gliese 581: The Departure is an exhilarating sci-fi thriller. If you like dystopian future worlds, second-chance heroes, and suspenseful mysteries, then you’ll love Christine Shuck’s gripping intergalactic thrill-ride.

    Author

    Christine D Shuck

    Fueled by homemade coffee ice cream, a lifelong love of words, and armed with strong female (and male) characters I cross genres like the Ghostbusters crossed the streams in pursuit of the question. “What is the question?” you ask. The question is simple. It asks, “What would you do, if…” What would you do if you were fifteen years old and the world as you knew it fell apart? Would you run? Would you fight? Would you survive? – Meet Jess and her brother Chris in the War’s End series. What would you do if you had a chance to live your life over? Not just once, but twice? – Meet Dean Edmonds in Fate’s Highway What would you do if everyone you loved was lost to a terrible virus and you faced the real possibility of the extinction of the human race in the dark void of space? – Meet Daniel Medry in G581: The Departure What would you do if hitmen were after you and you had no idea why? – Meet Lila and Shane in Hired Gun If I don’t keep you turning pages late into the night, desperate to know what happens next, then I have failed at my job. I’m a Taurus and born in Missouri. That makes me bull-headed and stubborn to boot. I don’t believe in failure or mistakes, only learning opportunities and clever conversation. There’s not much I won’t do to make you burn the midnight oil reading my words while you suffer sleep-deprivation the following day. It’s my secret superpower. Born in flyover country, I’ve also lived in Arizona and northern California. I am an eclectic mix of snark and oddball humor. My colorful metaphors would make a fishwife blush. I’m an incompetent gardener, a dreamer and doer, in love with old houses and shooting pool, and chief organizer of all thing’s household and financial. Feed me tiramisu and I’m yours forever.
