About the Book
A sci-fi thrill ride—incredible action, inventive world-building, deadly humor, and more—for fans of movie classics such as Blade Runner and Mad Max! This is the companion to Invisible Sun and Black Hole Sun, which Suzanne Collins, the author of The Hunger Games, called "imaginative and action-packed."
Characters return, new characters are introduced, and the action never stops. Readers embraced the first two books in acclaimed author David Macinnis Gill's trilogy about Durango, Mimi (his nano-implant with a biting wit), and Vienne (his second-in-command), calling the books non-put-downable, thrilling, funny, and totally satisfying. A surefire bet for fans of dystopian sci-fi, from The Hunger Games to Battlestar Galactica. Cinematic action, rapid-fire dialogue, a futuristic setting on a terraformed Mars, and tragic romance—Shadow on the Sun is an unstoppable adrenaline rush!
Hunted by the most powerful man on Mars—his own father—can Durango survive the war and find his way back to the woman he can’t forget?
- High-Stakes Dystopian Adventure: Explore a futuristic, terraformed Mars where General Lyme’s brutal regime reigns and a desperate rebellion fights for freedom.
- An AI with Attitude: Durango isn’t alone. He has Mimi, a powerful AI nano-implant with a biting wit and a knack for getting them out of—and into—trouble.
- Complex Father-Son Conflict: The rebellion’s greatest enemy is General Lyme, the most brutal dictator on the planet. He’s also Durango’s father, and he will stop at nothing to control his son.
- A Star-Crossed Romance: Durango is a fugitive, and Vienne is a warrior trying to heal from her past. They’re separated by war, but they might be each other’s only hope for survival.
