In the early 23rd century a small, heavily armed and surprisingly disciplined smuggling ship that spends more time fighting than smuggling is docked at a backwater planet and in need of recruits.

It's exactly the sort of ship Florentina Clarke would avoid signing on to like the plague, if she had a choice.

But when you are stuck 200 years out of your time, on the run from the Yakuza and trying to hide the fact you've just become a vampire, sometimes the bad choices are your only choices.

Shadow Eclipse: Voyage is the first book in the Shadow Eclipse series, following the adventures of Florentina Clarke across time and space.

"EM Gale's Shadow Eclipse: Voyage deftly combines, or should I say launches, the supernatural off into space and into the future."
