  In the 25th century, only the Shoal possess the secret of faster-than-light travel (FTL), giving them absolute control over all trade and exploration throughout the galaxy. Mankind has operated within their influence for two centuries, establishing a dozen human colony worlds scattered along Shoal trade routes.

  Dakota Merrick, while serving as a military pilot, has witnessed atrocities for which this alien race is responsible. Now piloting a civilian cargo ship, she is currently ferrying an exploration team to a star system containing a derelict star ship. From its wreckage, her passengers hope to salvage a functioning FTL drive of mysteriously non-Shoal origin. But the Shoal are not yet ready to relinquish their monopoly over a technology they acquired through ancient genocide.

  Shoal Sequence is undoubtedly the best space opera of the present century. Even though it is underrated.
  To me, science fiction should be all about the “unknown, far-away, alien” places, events and themes. Unfortunately, most of the science fiction novels are actually very earthly dramas that have nothing except their settings or eras to claim a place in the genre.
  Shoal Sequence, however, is true science fiction that would transport you into an unknown and alien age and setting. The emphasis, quite appropriately for a real science fiction story, is on the story and the themes but the characters are still real and developed.
