I first saw this hosted by Reading is My Superpower. You just grab a book, either one you are currently reading or on your TBR and write out the first lines. Just a fun way to get people interested in what you are reading.

This week, I chose a random book on my TBR that is a bit different than what I normally read!

Prologue
“Each communication was a risk, but such were the realities of war when sending sensitive information over interstellar relays.”

•Synopsis•

Shipwrecked on a distant planet. Mysterious alien relics. His fresh start just turned into an interstellar conspiracy.

After an undercover investigation goes bad, ex-soldier Evan hopes to forge a new life on a remote colony world. But when the transport ship explodes in orbit, his plans for a peaceful early retirement go out the airlock.

He crash-lands with a small group of settlers, away from the target site and with limited resources. Unable to call for help off-world, Evan and the mission’s xenobiologist Anya race for survival in the dangerous wilds—until they realize they aren’t alone on the planet.

Evan’s investigative instincts tell him that nothing about this colony mission going awry is an accident. When evidence points to an ancient alien starship hidden somewhere on the planet, he realizes that solving the mystery will be the biggest case of his life.

Can Evan survive the hostile planet long enough to uncover the truth? (via Amazon)
