Description:

Temper is an interstellar, part of a galaxy spanning trade union whose members have abandoned loyalty to their home planets to make a future working in space. But that's when he's part of a crew on a starship, now he's marooned on a desolate planet with no clear idea what mishap has befallen him and is very much a cold, lonely and helpless human being. Before he can even begin to unravel how bad his situation is the phagia, the galaxy's biosphere devouring apex predator, arrives in orbit to begin digesting the deserted world.

With none of the advanced technology he depends on working, Temper's only chance to survive is to make common cause with the other three beings on the planet: two alien entrepreneurs who consider him a curiosity, and an operative from Earth's human supremacist government to whom him and his union are simply traitors.

In hopes of working his way back to his old life Temper will have to aid an alien tycoon against the cult of a fallen empire, reconstruct the accident that left him stranded and uncover the link between the planet eating phagia and the family he barely remembers. The more time Temper spends on the fringes of the galaxy the more he is confronted with uncomfortable truths about his life with the union. The only way he can move forward is to face up to all the parts of his life he's left broken behind him.

BROKEN INTERSTELLAR is a science fiction novel, 130,000 words. It will appeal to sci fi fans looking for space operas without military or imperial leads.
