On launch day of NASA's long-awaited expedition to explore Jupiter's moon Europa, neuropsychiatrist Amanda wakes up from a coma after months battling acute meningitis. Along with two patients, they discover they are part of a growing puzzle involving an underground geopolitical corporation called The Firm, which plans to sabotage the mission, taking advantage of a new technology to hijack the ship and set a course to a habitable planet located seventeen light-years away from Earth.

Review

Trotta manages to create an epic narrative scope without the need for a bloated page count. I don’t mind a lengthy novel, but I do appreciate an author who’s able to do so much with so little. It means readers who have less free time don’t have to miss out on these kinds of stories!

This was exactly the kind of seamless sci-fi/fantasy blend that I’m looking for. It’s often tricky to market these stories and so I’m always grateful to see an author willing to write them anyway.

A compelling mix of flawed characters forced into complex socio-political situations. I could never be certain what choices they’d make or where they’d end up.

Great world building, amazing prose, and enticing complex characters that grow a lot.

About the Author

A love for space operas with controversial and adult themes along with a hint of lovecraftian horror are F. P. Trotta's specialty - born in Rio de Janeiro in the Early 90s, Intergalactica was originally published in Brazil in 2016. The Intergalactica book series went on to move tens of thousands of physical copies in Portuguese and is currently the only ongoing space opera franchise published in Brazil.
