SHATTERED SPEAR, the fourth novel in Jack Campbell‘s Lost Stars series, is due to be published by Titan Books in the UK, in May 2016. Above you can see the striking cover, and here’s the synopsis…

The Syndicate Worlds continue to splinter as more star systems pledge allegiance to President Gwen Iceni, General Artur Drakon, and the new government they’re establishing at Midway. But the toxic legacy of Syndicate rule continues to undermine their efforts as the rebels encounter difficulty trusting one another and believing their new leaders’ promises of freedom from tyranny.

Before Iceni and Drakon can put their house in order, they must deal with an even greater threat. An enigma warship has appeared and vanished near a Syndic colony. If the aliens are capable of jumping into other human-occupied star systems, then billions of people could be vulnerable to a hostile invasion fleet anywhere they choose to strike.

But an even greater vulnerability lies with Iceni and Drakon, as a once-trusted adviser-turned-saboteur plans revenge…

Titan publishes the first three novels in the series, too: TARNISHED KNIGHT, PERILOUS SHIELD and IMPERFECT SWORD. Titan also publishes critically-acclaimed and best-selling Lost Fleet series (from which Lost Stars grew) and, in the same universe, the Beyond the Frontier series. The Stark’s War and JAG In Space series are also available via Titan.
