“Perilous Choices” Released

“Perilous Choices,” the eleventh book in the Gate Ghosts series, is available on Amazon U.S. in ebook. Softcover print will soon follow. A glossary (PDF) will be available on my website before the audiobook is released.

I recommend reading the previous two series of the Earthers’ saga, The Silver Ships and Pyreans, to understand some of the nuances in this third series.

Summary: Imperium’s Presiding Executor Gaketork sends emissaries to establish communications with Admiral Cordelia. She responds by installing a comm system aboard the executor’s transport. The Imperium governor, who has become sentient, uses the new comm system to send her critical data.

    Scott,
    As usual, I enjoyed Perilous Choices and look forward to Dubious Risks.

    Mr. Jucha,
    Another GREAT read!!!! I don’t even mind being called “an ancient human”. LOL. And I really enjoy all the new races. Please keep writing these awesome books. Thank you very much, Scott. I have really loved reading all 35 books.

    Thanks for another addition to the series, I love the worlds and characters you have created and wasn’t ready for the book to end, but at least, March is approaching quickly! Maybe it is time for a complete reread of all the books in preparation! I always try to reread the previous couple of books but every couple of books I’ll start from the very beginning… (damn now I have The Sound of Music playing in my head)

      You’re welcome, Jennifer. It’s odd the music that we associate with our different thoughts. Mine are often coupled to who I heard in my college years: Joe Cocker, Janis Joplin, Jefferson Airplane, Ritchie Havens, The Mamas and The Papas, and Jimi Hendrix, to name a few.

    love the brief hint of the aliens features and sounds. i’m thinking represented we have sentient porcupines, , sentient horses, sentient tho silent elephants and their rider monkeys that do speak, krackus are birds, woots resemble big foot. thats not even counting alliance races of kinds of animals we are familiar with now aliens in your universe. i love it, so interesting.and fun. the newest race julian met is going to be really interesting i’m sure.. this series is turning out to be as expansive as silver ships looks like and we haven’t even touched on hectors search for 5th ship yet. lead on oh intreid explorer.
