Publisher's summary

Twelve light-years from Earth, Lieutenant Commander Valory Jeanne, is alone in the astrophysics lab when an unexpected meteor storm strikes the United Earth Space Force ship Copernicus. After just four orbits around a newly discovered planet in the Tau Ceti star system, the ship is destroyed.

Now stranded onboard without any means of escaping to the planet below, the PhD astrophysicist must struggle against insurmountable odds to stay alive on a dead spaceship. Relying on ingenuity, perseverance, and hard-won knowledge, lone survivor Dr. Jeanne finally manages to revive the ship's state-of-the-art equipment and devises a method of sending a communication to Earth.

As the faster-than-light message speeds through the universe, she knows it is her last hope of rescue before the ship enters the atmosphere and crashes in a shallow sea. Unfortunately, Earth is not the only recipient of her message. As rescuers Chris Elliott and Caitlyn Carver race to the crash site in a problem-plagued newly commissioned spaceship, hostile aliens circle the crashed Copernicus, transforming Valory's predicament from bad to worse.

In this continuing science fiction adventure, an astrophysicist trapped in her spaceship awaiting rescue unwittingly makes contact with aliens, who quickly reveal the hazards and benefits of sharing the universe with other beings.

Three Thrilling Stories in One

Twelve light years from earth, what remains of the earth starship Copernicus orbits the planet Tau Ceti G. The few survivors of the ship’s encounter with a deadly meteor storm struggle to survive on a planet with hostile creatures and no way to contact their home planet. After months of hardship, they are finally rescued by another ship from earth. That is the plot of author Charles P. Graham’s first entry in his Survive! space saga, Marooned on Planet Tau Ceti G.

In his second Survive! novel, First Alien Contact, Graham reveals there was one more Copernicus survivor. Lieutenant Commander Valory Jeanne, of the United Earth Space Force, survived the battering of her ship only to find herself trapped aboard with no life pods in which she could escape to the planet below. Valory, an astrophysicist, is forced to use all her scientific knowledge to survive onboard the crippled ship and improvise sending a distress message to earth.

But this is not just another story of survival; it’s three stories in one. After returning to earth, several of the rescued Copernicus survivors are assigned to the space force’s newest faster-then-light ship, the Orion. Before the shin response to Valory’s galactic SOS. The rescue mission doesn’t go well; the new ship is plagued with teething problems, and the crew makes first contact with not one but four intelligence life forms, but not all of them friendly.

Graham’s story of survival, heroism, and diplomacy is a taut sci-fi thriller, with a great narration by Jonathan Andrew, and is a must read for space saga fans.
