Xenophon's vision inspired the foundation of the Planetary Engineering, Geological, Aeronautical, Space and Underwater Service to safeguard humanity. Decades later, settlements spread from Venus to Ceres, but humankind is fragmented. Malevolent forces with an insatiable hunger for power lurk hidden in the shadows. The Martian Mercantile Alliance, the League of Interplanetary Traders, the Association of Non-Aligned States and P.E.G.A.S.U.S. vie for dominion. Tensions are rising, and the escalation of this rivalry threatens conflict that would lead to the annihilation of life in all planetary and off-world biospheres. Executive Officer Commander Konstantinos Orpheus has seized control of the flagship of the fleet, P.E.G.A.S.U.S. interplanetary cruiser Hermes. The ship is in harm's way, and Konstantinos has a mystery to solve. Nothing matters more to Konstantinos than the Hermes and his crewmates, and to get them through this crisis, he is willing to put everything on the line - even his career. Maelstrom is the first novel based in the P.E.G.A.S.U.S. series and incorporates science fiction and mythological fantasy themes, introducing the reader to a new universe of action and adventure.
