Gallowglass is a science fiction book by author S.J. Morden.
In 2069, the Earth is changing. Entire countries are being wiped off the map by climate change. New resources, the space race has exploded back to life.
Companies seek ever greater profits outside of the world. They offer huge rewards to anyone who can claim the space’s resources on their behalf. Bounties on an asteroid compete with the GDP of an entire nation, every trick, whether legal or not, is used to win.
Jack, the son of a shipping tycoon, is desperate to escape from Earth and join a team chasing an asteroid. The ship he is on is full of desperate people – each needing wealth and claiming that the asteroid will bring them and that they are willing to do anything if it means getting there first.
In space, there is no prize for runner-up. It’s all or nothing: immeasurable riches or dying alone in the dark.
