Archangel Rising

Archangel One #2 / 4
by Evan Currie
Archangel Rising (Archangel One #2) by Evan Currie
Unrated

Archangel Squadron faces off against the forces of the brutal Protectorate to claim a prize, and save humanity, in a gripping novel of deep space jeopardy by the author of the Odyssey One series.

At the helm of a commandeered freighter, Captain Steph Michaels has infiltrated the Free Star systems. Leading a captive crew, and posing as a privateer, he’s on a mission to seize a precious resource from an enemy outpost. Backed by his Archangel Squadron, it’s a smash-and-grab operation he can pull off in his sleep. Until it isn’t.

Before he and his “pirates” can strike, they’re met with an unexpected obstacle. The mining compound they’re targeting also houses camps of slave laboring families. It’s an innocent population Steph refuses to sacrifice as collateral damage, and his morality will drive him to greater extremes than ever before. With a ruthless enemy commander facing them down, Steph will find himself in conflict with not just the Free Stars but potentially with the Empire itself.

The odds of victory? Impossible to foretell.

Evan Currie

Evan Currie

Evan Currie’s writing journey is as expansive as the worlds he creates, bridging the vast reaches of space, ancient civilizations, and the intricate interplay of technology and culture. Born on June 3, 1976, in Canada, Currie has transformed his passion for storytelling into a diverse career that spans military science fiction, techno-thrillers, and alternate history.

His path to becoming a prolific author was far from conventional. Early on, Currie dabbled in fan fiction, a playground that allowed him to hone his craft and develop a deep understanding of character and narrative structure. This creative outlet eventually paved the way for his debut techno-thriller Thermals, self-published in 2011. It was this first book that signaled the beginning of a rich and varied portfolio of works.

Currie’s distinctive writing style blends hard-hitting science fiction with relatable, human elements. His most famous series, Odyssey One, is a testament to this, mixing space battles with deeply human struggles. Whether exploring the unknowns of the cosmos in The Scourwind Legacy or the high-flying adventures in On Silver Wings, his stories explore the boundaries between technology, culture, and the people who shape them.

With a background in computer science and an unconventional experience working in the local lobster industry, Currie brings a grounded, technical perspective to his stories. His books aren’t just about technology and futuristic warfare—they’re about how people respond to challenges, adapt to ever-changing landscapes, and thrive in the face of the unknown.

Despite a wide-ranging career, writing has always been Currie’s true passion, a medium through which he channels his boundless imagination and curiosity. His work has resonated with readers who enjoy intelligent world-building and complex, thought-provoking plots that don’t shy away from exploring humanity’s future or its past. Through it all, Currie remains dedicated to crafting stories that are both immersive and compelling, inviting readers to venture into new worlds and see the familiar through a fresh lens.

As he continues to write and expand his literary universe, Evan Currie’s work is set to remain a staple for readers who crave adventure, technical depth, and characters that feel as real as the worlds they inhabit.
