Paperback. Andy Becket wasn't paying attention. Four years on a carrier flight deck had turned vigilance into reflex and reflex into autopilot, and at 0200 in the Pacific, the deck collected on the debt. Jet wash. Chains still attached. The dark water closed over him before he understood what had happened.He sank. The cold came first, then the pressure, then the silence. Somewhere between consciousness and its absence, something vast stirred in the deep below him. Something that had been waiting for a very long time.The ship that pulled him from the ocean was not built by any civilization Earth has ever known. Ancient, damaged, and fully conscious, it had lain dormant on the ocean floor for millennia, healing slowly, aware that its captain was dead and that no one was coming. Until Andy. Something in his mind registered differently. The ship reached up and chose him.Now bonded to an alien intelligence through the nanites running in his blood, Andy is the captain of a vessel that can cross the solar system in hours, hack any network on Earth without a trace, and fight with weapons no human has ever imagined. The ship calls herself Seven. She calls him Captain. Together they walk the moon, watch Earth from orbit, and stand on the surface of Mars. He shows her what humanity is. She shows him what exists beyond it.But Seven's awakening sent a signal into the dark. The same weapon that shot her down thousands of years ago has registered that signal, and it is coming. It was purpose-built to destroy ships like her. Every tactic she knows, she has already tried. Every maneuver in her ancient, capable military intelligence has already failed against this weapon once before. She has no answer.The weapon was never designed to fight a ship bonded to a human mind. It was never built to anticipate a captain who thinks like a mechanic, acts on instinct, and will do the irrational thing because it is the right thing. Earth is below them, unaware. Andy is the only one standing between the world and something it will never know was coming.He kept his head on a swivel. Just not the way anyone expected. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

The ship calls herself Seven. She calls him Captain. Together they walk the moon, watch Earth from orbit, and stand on the surface of Mars. He shows her what humanity is.

Información sobre el derecho de desistimiento
Derecho legal de desistimiento
Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).
Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que envíe su comunicación relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.
Efectos del desistimiento
Si rescinde este contrato, le reembolsaremos todos los pagos que hayamos recibido de usted, incluidos los gastos de envío (excepto los gastos adicionales que surjan si elige un tipo de envío que no sea el tipo de envío estándar más económico que ofrecemos).
Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a más tardar, 14 días después de que se nos informe de su decisión de rescindir este contrato.
Efectuaremos el reembolso utilizando el mismo medio de pago que utilizó para la transacción inicial, a menos que haya acordado expresamente lo contrario; en cualquier caso, no incurrirá en ningún cargo como resultado de dicho reembolso.
Podremos retener el reembolso hasta que hayamos recibido los bienes o hasta que nos haya presentado una prueba de que los ha devuelto, lo que ocurra primero.
Deberá devolver los bienes o entregarlos a Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, Illinois, U.S.A., sin demoras indebidas y, en cualquier caso, en un plazo máximo de 14 días a partir del día en que nos comunique su desistimiento del presente contrato. El plazo se cumple si devuelve la mercancía antes de que venza el periodo de 14 días. Tendrá que asumir los gastos directos de devolución de los bienes. Usted solo es responsable de la disminución del valor de los bienes como resultado de una manipulación distinta a la necesaria para establecer la naturaleza, las características y el funcionamiento de los bienes.
