A harrowing tale of space exploration turned into a nightmare of survival.

Fresh off their historic discoveries on the Jupiter moon Callisto, the crew of the Rorschach Explorer and their colleagues in Mission Control should have known better. 

Space is not a lifeless vacuum.

Dark and forbidding, it is a jungle where the rules of survival are no different than those on Earth 

- Keep your head on a swivel 

- Trust nothing you think you know. 

- Kill or be killed.

Icy and vast, it is an ocean where the divide between life and death is often more dependent on forging alliances than individual prowess. 

There is always something bigger, faster, smarter and hungrier than you.

Spartan and unforgiving, it is a desert where the daily struggle for existence requires constant ingenuity and adaptation. Oases are few and far between and there is no respite from danger.

But the crew was lulled by an easy start to Rorschach's maiden voyage and they let their guard down. 

And sure as the Sun rises, savage predators emerged from the darkness once more....

Magwave, book 2 of the Rorschach Explorer Missions series, continues the story first hatched in the series' novella and prequel, UMO, and further explored in books 1 to 3 in the series starting with Skywave and concluding with Dynewave.

K. Patrick Donoghue is the author of two series; The Anlon Cully Chronicles, an archaeology-based mystery-thriller series, and The Rorschach Explorer Missions, a new sci-fi thriller series. The Authors inspiration for The Anlon Cully Chronicles is rooted in his long-standing interest in ancient civilizations. In particular, a series of still-unexplained archaeological discoveries that suggest at least one advanced society thrived on Earth long before consensus views. In similar fashion, Patrick takes a contrarian/alternative view toward deep space exploration, the existence of extraterrestrial life and ancient aliens in The Rorschach Explorer Missions. He lives in the Washington, D.C. area with his wife and two sons.
