STARDRIVE:Promethea
A Novel by John Work
In the near future, the People’s Republic of China uses space-launched EMP
and neutron bombs in an attack that destroys the US military and kills half the
country’s population. In the aftermath, a young engineer flees from a Chinese
patrol and is rescued by a recluse in the mountains of Montana. The engineer
carries in her mind the designs for revolutionary advances in power and
propulsion that will make it possible to build the first starships. Together,
the engineer and the recluse build a device that taps into Zero Point Energy to
produce unlimited power. Then, aided by an Air Force pilot and in a manner
reminiscent of the Wright brothers’ first flight 110 years before, they build
and fly a prototype starship. After locating a company that was building new
spaceships to be used with the engineer’s stardrive, they find allies and
begin a series of actions that save millions of lives on Earth, establish a
secure base on Mars, and make possible the first journeys to the stars.
