Broken Mold – An independent novel in the science fiction Terminus setting.
Petty Officer Scott Taylor woke up on the wrong side of the bed. So wrong he wasn't even in his bed. He was in a three person emergency pod that was crash landing on a planet. A planet he knew next to nothing about, other than they did classified Continuum military research here. That and he'd chased down rumors that his sister was stationed here.
Fortunately for Scott, this wasn't his first crash landing on an alien world. Unfortunately, he'd had his younger, but smarter and more mature sister to keep him from doing something stupid the first time. This time around surviving the crash, the hostile environment, and the local wildlife are the boxes he has to try and check on day 1. Day 2 has another list, but it includes not dying on it. Survival has never been so difficult, even for a veteran castaway.
At some point he'd really like to figure out why the Marine frigate he was on was destroyed in the first place. Even if the universe might not be ready for the answer to that question.
