First Line: "The man in the Antares bar-lounge didn't quite bang his head on the curved star ceiling on this, his fourth attempt."
Oh my gosh! I'll never be warm again. Iceriggers is an action packed story from beginning to end in which our characters are stranded on an icy planet and placed in jeopardy every step of the way, lead by the most unlikely of heroes. I love the characters names:
Ethan Fortune - who is a salesmen at the beginning and Skua September - our head banging bar fiend who is a hoodlum on the run.
Aliens, ice beasts, pirates, nutty monks. Lots and lots of ice. Always cold. Battles, beasts, crazy sail boats, even a volcano. Our characters are tested against the elements as well as against the pirates, and ice beasts.
Fast, fun, furious, ferocious, crazy story. And book #1 in the Icerigger series.
