THEY WERE BUILT FOR WAR
BUT LOST TO TIME
Five hundred years after the catastrophic Galaxy War, a stealth fighter craft named Selene's Shadow unexpectedly reactivated when a thrill-seeking farm girl flies too close to its centuries-old crash site. Emerging from states, the ship's captain, Shade and his uncannily independent AI commander, Selene befriend the young pilot, Sorrento, becoming protectors of her backwater farming colony.
But when the resurgent Molinsha Khanate war fleet attacks, Shade must race to find his long-lost twin sister Themis, The captain of another fabled supership, the Titan's Anvil. Believed destroyed in battle against an alien mega-weapon known only as "the Gate," Themis may be the key to stopping the Khanate's violent bid to reconquer humankind.
To save humanity from annihilation, Shade and Selene must solve the enduring riddles of the Galaxy War, unlock the ultimate capabilities of their advanced ship-selves, and dredge the depths of space itself to recover their missing twin.
The face of the known galaxy depends on it.

Gilbert’s smart SF adventure is the first in a series that imagines an alternate future. The world-building is immersive, the story’s developing take on power, quantum physics, and human identity is well done.

ABOUT
DAVID T. GILBERT
I developed my passion for science fiction and writing early on. "In the old days, we had typewriters. I got a job where I had to type, so I wrote a book when not working. I never did anything with it back then. It was completely different from Selene's Shadow.
Many years later, when Covid-19 struck and people were confined and seeking activities, I felt compelled to write creatively. I began drafting my epic Sci-Fi tale, Selene's Shadow.
