THE LAST STARSHIP

By DV Dollard

THE LAST STARSHIP Before her sentencing for a murder she did not commit, River Langstrom had been an external station repair technician aboard the space station Danbury. Hovering in a geostationary orbit above what had once been the North American continent, Danbury, a massive spoked wheel, was home for ten thousand colonials, refugees from Earth. Two hundred years earlier, Earth's atmosphere was rendered toxic in a catastrophic conflict now long forgotten. Despite its many dangers, River found working in the vacuum of space both challenging and exciting, or at least she did before her sentencing. Now she was confined to a six foot square metal box on E Deck, deep in Danbury's bowel, awaiting her eighteenth birthday when the guards would take her to the infirmary where she would be executed by lethal injection. That should have brought an end to her short life, but fate intervened in a manner both liberating and cruel. After hundreds of years, the Danbury was sinking inexorably into Earth's atmosphere. Freed from her confinement, River and several of her fellow prisoners make their way to an escape pod. Hurtled toward Earth, they crash in a dense forest where they face a dangerous and uncertain future among Earth's ancient ruins, hostile tribes, and terrifying artificial beings.
