Rex Burke

Rex Burke is a SciFi writer based in North Yorkshire. As well as his Odyssey Earth space adventure trilogy, recent publications include The Wrong Stop, a first-contact caper, and Third Loch From the Sun, a SciFi fantasy set on a remote Scottish island.

When he’s not writing, Rex travels – one way or another, he’ll get to the stars, even if it’s just as stardust when his own story is done.

Science Fiction

The colony ship, Odyssey Earth, is on a 17-year voyage across the galaxy to a new home. And Jordan Booth is exactly where he wanted to be – tucked up in hypersleep, with nothing to worry about until planetfall.

However, Captain Juno Washington has other ideas. She’s got a quirky ship’s AI, Reeves, and a crew of loners and oddballs, but what she doesn’t have is anyone to look out for the Odyssey Earth’s six ship-born teenagers.

When Jordan is revived and given the job, he’s far from happy about it. Then again, nor are the kids. Tight-knit, whip-smart, resilient – the last thing they need is a chaperone, and they make sure he knows it.

After an unexpected change of course, everyone needs to join forces if they’re going to survive. But Jordan is out of his comfort zone – and the teenagers are in no mood to listen. Still, if they pull together and stop squabbling, they might all just make it.

Yeah, right. Good luck with that.

If you like feelgood, character-led SciFi with heart and humour, then you’ll love the Odyssey Earth series. Perfect for fans of snappy dialogue, strong, relatable characters, slow-burn action, and coming-of-age, found-family adventures.

'This book is honestly funny (so funny), wholesome and uplifting ... a laugh-out-loud romp in outer space.'
