Moraturi Ring: Paradisi Chronicles
by Marti Ward
Release Date: January 4, 2021
The third book in the Lost Mission Series by Marti Ward… SS Moraturi is a Lunar Earth Transfer Orbiter that is taking two cryoholds full of colonists to New Eden, an earth-like planet in the Paradisi system, 2.5 million light-years from Earth in the Andromeda galaxy. Eva’s problem is that the trip that was to take one year is now going to take decades – their emergency supplies were based on 200% of expected needs for just 16 crew members with the 500 passengers in cryo, and the cryotechnology can’t keep them alive for even a decade at a stretch.
