My new WIP's working title is shipsong.
Right now I have a little over 4400 words. There is a little snippet under Pages. You might want to check it out.
It is a sci-fi, but not the one I had plan to work on.
Humans have span space, at least the systems 'close' to home/Terra. They have become a part of the Federation of Allied Systems which spans the known solar systems and encompasses many species. But they have not left all their old prejudices behind. On top of that another 'young' race seeks to rule the Federation or destroy it. The Ancient Ones are spoken of in whispers for they had all been decimated in a Great War and their tech forbidden, though sought by the Black Market and Human Universities.
A Salvager Captain has found a clue that may lead him to the Ancient Ones' homeworld.
This is where the story begins.
What do you think?
It is more Star Wars than Star Trek. Dark with sarcastic humor.
Sounds like you're making great progress!
ReplyDeleteSounds like the stuff of many a Science Fiction novel. You mentioned the humans have not left their prejudices behind. Showing that may be the hook that differentiates your novel from the pack.
ReplyDeleteIn my Alliance books the humans are not the good guys either. Which is the book I was going to work on but Song snagged me. So I'm working on two books right now. Song and book 2 of Ghostwolf.
