Three members of an elite team of operatives—once so close they were like family—are living in disgraced exile after a mission gone horribly wrong. But, they are thrown back into action when the solar system’s Jupiter Station is attacked from within. It will take all the tricks and tech they have to sort out the truth behind the official reports, and no small amount of courage to fight back against the system’s totalitarian government, in this exciting sci-fi debut novel from pillar of the Toronto science fiction community, Don Miasek.
Don Miasek plunges readers into a cracking fusion of cyberpunk and space opera, whirling us with breakneck action through a wonderfully realized vision of a inhabited solar system riven by intrigue. As agendas and loyalties fray and collide, our only certainty is that we care deeply about the characters, no matter which side they think they are on.
—David Annandale, Warlord (Warhammer 40,000) and The Tyrant Skies (A Marvel: Untold Novel)
Brimming with atmosphere from the first paragraph, the incredible world-building by Don Miasek will draw you in, but it's the fascinating characters and intriguing plot that will keep you there. Pale Grey Dot is a gripping debut that won't let you go until the last page is turned.
—Jason Pchajek, author of Bounty
Don Miasek writes from smack dab in the middle of Toronto. An editor for TDotSpec, he's helped bring Imps & Minions and Strange Wars to market as well as Speculative North Magazine. Called "One heck of a debut novel” by R. Graeme Cameron in Amazing Stories, his book Pale Grey Dot is an exciting entry to the Science Fiction genre.
