Hel's Eight Summary

Hel's Eight by Stark Holborn

Ten Low and her ragtag comrades take on an ultra-rich tycoon who owns entire planets in this high-octane clash of law and lawlessness across the stars, for fans of Gideon the Ninth, Anne Leckie and Becky Chambers. Who controls the future, controls it all... Ten Doc Low is a medic with a dark past, riding the wastes of the desert moon Factus, dispensing medicine to the needy and death to those who cross the laws of the mysterious Seekers. Cursed by otherworldly forces, she stays alone to keep herself safe, and to keep others safe from her... But when she experiences a terrifying vision of conflict and the deaths of those she once called friends, she must drag herself back to the land of the living to stop a war before it begins. With rebellion brewing, the Accord's grip on the Outer Moons weakening and a sinister tycoon buying up all land in sight, Ten must find allies where she can and face the past in order to save the future. The cost will be greater than she could ever have imagined... A wild, adrenaline-packed, whip-smart crash of storytelling and shoot-outs, ideal for fans of Becky Chambers' Wayfarers and Alex White's Salvagers.

Hel's Eight Reviews

PRAISE FOR STARK HOLBORN AND TEN LOW I loved Ten Low. Combining the taut characterisation and clever wit of Stark Holborn's spectacular Westerns with some splendidly inclusive and innovative sci-fi, this is a wonderful fusion of Firefly and Joanna Russ, with a Ennio Morricone soundtrack. - Joanne Harris, best-selling author of Chocolat, The Gospel of Loki and many more Mad Max meets Firefly - and that's awesome - Claire North, award-winning author of The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August A fantastic, punchy SF action story, full of blood and grit and bitter pasts - Adrian Tchaikovsky, award-winning author of Children of Time, Dogs of War and many more. Stark Holborn continues to impress. Great characters and a blistering pace - Gareth Powell, award-winning author of the Embers of War series The future of space westerns, TEN LOW showed me the most vibrant desert world since Dune. A stunning blend of pulp and literary exploration leaves the old guard masters in the dust. - Alex White, author of the Salvagers trilogy Stark Holborn's writing is clever, original and thrilling - R. J. Barker, author of The Bone Ships and Age of Assassins An action-packed SF adventure with an intriguing majority female cast? OH, HELL YES! - Stina Leicht, author of Persephone Station I loved this from beginning to end. There are furious fight-scenes, down-and-dirty characters and incredible world-building. Stark Holborn grabs you by the throat on page one and never lets you go! - Cavan Scott, bestselling and award-winning author A gritty space western that fans of The Mandalorian should lap up. As always, Stark Holborn makes us feel immediately for the characters to the point where we'll follow them through hell. And we do. - Paul Cornell, author of the Shadow Police and Witches of Lychford series Holborn shows what a rich imagination she has - The Times Packed with wildly memorable female characters and the pacey prose keeps things whip-cracking along. - SFX
