About this ebook

The Endeavor is a colony ship from Earth, and she's in trouble. Caught in the massive gravity well of a black hole, the ship is just barely managing to keep itself from being pulled in. In fact, the ship would have been pulled in long ago if it wasn't for a Coven of witches on board led by Munji. When things take a turn for the worse for the ship and its passengers, Munji must save them all.

The closer the Endeavor came, the less likely it would be that the ship’s powerful engines, capable of propelling it to nearly the speed of light, could pull them out of its deadly grasp. If the power techs couldn't get the fusion reactors back on-line soon the ship would be lost. Munji was tiring and could not hold the spirit’s attention much longer.

    A clang and a whoosh interrupted Munji. Without thinking, she glanced over to the airlock door, her concentration breaking for the briefest instant. She glimpsed the silhouette of a young woman in her early twenties through the flickering and wavering emergency lighting that gave everything a ghastly and foggy look.
