All Shall Go to Wrack: Book 1 of the Laughing Lip Gregory P. Lee

All Shall Go to Wrack First Book of The Laughing Lip Humanity barely holds back the spidery zhizhu, voracious competitors for rare Earth-like worlds. Imperial Fleet ships have disappeared from the Reserve Anchorage near Proxima Centauri. Piracy is increasing along Yi Tan's Reach. Human ?Manifest Destiny? fanatics are preparing biological genocide of Tau Ceti IV?s non-human bipeds while sympathizers in Fleet itself prepare for open rebellion. With these crises converging, Cuchulain ?Murphy? O?Meath of the Emperor?s Jin Jun has been set loose to disobey orders, forge Imperial Writs, and just possibly find a way to get matters under better control. Along the way, he illegally detains Lt. Urwah Grunon, Fleet Marine, and Lt. Commander B. P. Avinashini, Fleet?s most skilled Gandiva pilot. O?Meath takes them to Tau Ceti IV to find Fahnisht, O?Meath?s non-human friend and Clanlord. The puzzle begins to come together as the zhizhu lurk and genocide begins? Look for ?Demand the Debt That?s Owing,? the second book of The Laughing Lip in mid-spring.
