Jon Hunt’s brilliant illustrations for a free downloadable PDF excerpt called “Salvage Run” from my novel, 1% Free. Plus, a glimpse of the process of creating the illustrations.
I have three free PDF excerpts from my novel “1% Free.” The first is entitled “A Galactic Derive” and offers a glossary of terms to help the reader navigate the world of 2042. The second is entitled “Salvage Run,” which introduces the main character Becky Wiley in a blaze of glory, a firefight in which she recovers a mysterious artifact. The third is entitled “Black Widow Mouth,” wherein the main character Jimmy Hidalgo chases a seriel killer who murdered his best friend.
An astute, socially relevant tale, set in a world that readers will happily get lost in.

These four maps depict part of the world in 2042 c.e., during the scope of my near-future science fiction novel, 1% Free.
