I’m participating in Waiting on Wednesday hosted by Breaking the Spine. This gives me a chance to show the books I’m looking forward to coming out in the next few months.
Check out Breaking the Spine for more information.
Admiral by Sean Danker
Series: None
Publication Date: May
Synopsis (from Goodreads): “I was on a dead ship on an unknown planet with three trainees freshly graduated into the Imperial Service. I tried to look on the bright side.”
He is the last to wake. The label on his sleeper pad identifies him as an admiral of the Evagardian Empire—a surprise as much to him as to the three recent recruits now under his command. He wears no uniform, and he is ignorant of military protocol, but the ship’s records confirm he is their superior officer.
Whether he is an Evagardian admiral or a spy will be of little consequence if the crew members all end up dead. They are marooned on a strange world, their ship’s systems are failing one by one—and they are not alone.

Why I want this book
- I really like military science fiction and this sounds quite unique. I like the last of the synopsis–“and they are not alone.”
- I think this is a debut author. I’m always happy to find a new author to like.
- I like this cover.
This sounds interesting and definitely unique. I don’t think I’ve ever read any military scifi. I hope you share your thoughts on it because the premise definitely intrigues me!

When I was making a past list for anticipated 2016 debuts, this one caught my eye as well. I’m getting picky with my sci-fi though, so I want to wait and see 🙂

I hope this will be good. It sounds good, but you can’t tell just from just the synopsis.

This sounds amazing! It actually reminds me a little about the upcoming movie Passengers with JLaw and Chris Hemsworth.
