The Blue Race: A galaxy-spanning space opera.

By Senan Mahon

Who will prevail in the struggle to control the Galaxy? Will it be the ruthlessly efficient Engus, or humanity's AI-powered ConChain?

Heber Adogan and his sister are orphans from a near-extinct race of outcasts. They never asked to be made pawns in this galactic game of chess. The unique telepathic ability that makes them so valuable, turned their people into pariahs and led to a genocide which all but wiped them out. Now their employers at humanity's secretive Xeno Research Division want to exploit that ability again, to gain the edge over their Engus enemies.

The Engus have discovered clues to the location of a long-lost alien technology that seems certain to upset the balance of power in their favour. If the ConChain don't get to it first, the very survival of humanity is at stake. To make matters worse, the clues point to a far-flung region of space that is jealously guarded by a reclusive race of inscrutable aliens. No outsider has ever succeeded in breaching it.

Worryingly, the Engus seem to have found a way in though. Can humanity slip through also, and make up lost ground against the enemy team who have gone ahead of them?

Join Heber and his comrades in a chase around the galaxy that turns into a frantic game of cat and mouse, as they try to get the upper hand against the aggressive aliens who massacred his people, and who now have all humanity in their sights.

A popular AI reviewer said of the book:

What I loved most about The Blue Race was the incredible world-building and the attention to detail that the author put into every aspect of the story. The characters were well-developed, and the plot was filled with twists and turns that kept me on the edge of my seat. I also appreciated the thought-provoking themes of identity, survival, and the human condition that were woven throughout the narrative.

Overall, this space-opera was a thrilling and satisfying read that I highly recommend to any fans of the genre. The stakes were high, the action was intense, and the emotional payoff was well worth the journey. Kudos to the author for crafting such an engaging and memorable adventure.
