Olympus Dawn: A near-future sci-fi technothriller and colonization novel - Paperback

by Zoë E. Routh (Author)

A ruthless CEO wants Mars. A battle-scarred crew stands in his way.

When a merciless corporate titan sabotages humanity's first long-term Mars mission to seize its breakthrough terraforming technology, two commanders must lead their battle-scarred crew through danger, betrayal, and the fight for the future of two worlds.

Earth is spiralling into political chaos as Lincoln Ellison, the ruthless CEO of Spaceward Bound, sets his sights on claiming Mars as his personal empire. His plan: cripple the Olympus mission, steal its secrets, and seize control of a technology that could reshape planets... and fortunes.

But on the Red Planet, Commanders Troy Bruin and Xanthe Waters have problems of their own. Sabotage undermines their systems. Old rivalries crackle through the team. And every step across the Martian surface exacts a deadly price. As Xanthe struggles with the cost of leadership and Troy races to uncover the truth, the Olympus crew must decide who to trust - before Ellison's ambitions become humanity's downfall.

Character-driven, tense, and deeply human, Olympus Dawn is a gripping sci-fi eco-thriller about survival, power, and high-stakes frontier exploration. The stunning conclusion to the Gaia series.

Perfect for fans of Andy Weir, Kim Stanley Robinson, and Naomi Alderman.
