The Complete Starquest Omnibus, Volume I

Space Opera must be Great! Gallant! Gigantic! Grandiose!

Grandmaster John C. Wright restores the lost glory of classic pulp space opera in the complete Starquest saga—an unapologetic, larger-than-life epic of high adventure set amid the stars of the Andromeda Galaxy.  In the aftermath of a fallen Galactic Empire, the Four Dark Overlords are believed destroyed… yet their shadows linger. From the embers rise new threats: pirate fleets under the iron rule of the monstrous cyborg Ahab, a Crime Syndicate that corrupts republics from within, ancient eldritch powers stirring in the void, and super-weapons that quench living stars. 

Meet Athos Lone, Ace of the Star Patrol turned vengeful infiltrator and masked vigilante known as the Ancient Mariner, driven by a brother’s blood debt. Follow Space Princess Lyra Centauri, exiled Shrine Maiden and mystic spy, whose astral powers and quest for her lost homeworld of Arcadia lead her through dream realms and deadly intrigue. Walk beside the unseen spymaster Nightshadow, the loyal-yet-questioning centurion Flint Ansteel, the Merry Catburglar who walks through walls, and a host of heroes, outlaws, templars, and improbable allies as they battle dark lords, phantom thieves, sinister syndicates, and forces older than empire. 

Here are space princesses and space pirates, iron-masked avengers and clone troopers who must choose their true loyalty, secret agents and pirate kings, warfleets and dimensional duels, wonder and horror, chivalry and cunning.

This is the rip-roaring, heroic, fun space opera of old—restored, expanded, and told with the grandeur and invention only a true grandmaster can deliver. 

All true tales are but part of a greater. The complete Starquest omnibus collection awaits.
