Captain Jacob Brinn, a genius who has challenged all the armies of the world, is taking things to a new level.

While he and his magnificent experimental vessel, the Argo, depart on a mission to decoy the enemy forces into following them, his Argonauts move to ratchet up the pressure on the world’s governments.

The helpless leaders of the world’s most powerful nations can do nothing but bear witness to the terror that is Captain Brinn’s fury unleashed—a fury that shakes the very foundation of human civilization itself.

Meanwhile, the voyage of the Argo has evolved into something far different; an incredible journey to where myth becomes fact, legend becomes history, and the secrets of the universe are laid bare.

Finally, the actions of the panicking world leaders force Captain Brinn’s recall from the voyage of a lifetime.

From the Earth to the surface of the Moon, the future of the human race will be spelled out in hellfire itself.

About this Book

In Tartarus, all the threads that weave through the Argosy Trilogy come together in a complex, tightly woven skein.

Captain Jacob Brinn, the genius who has challenged the whole world, departs on the voyage for which he'd originally designed the incredible Argo. This is both to decoy the enemy forces into pursuing him, as well as to rediscover humanity's past, and its fate.

Meanwhile, the crack team of Argonauts he left behind begin setting up a worldwide network of covert installations. Once completed, these will allow the Captain to hold the entire world hostage. But that is one thing the forces of order in the world will not allow.

An uncomprehending world watches in shock as the brutal final battle to the death begins.

And so, from the Earth to the surface of the Moon, the future of the human race is spelled out in hellfire itself.

About the Author

Stephen J. Schrader lives in southern California. After a wildly adventurous life as an Army Counterintelligence Agent, he left the service, and decided to return to his first love—writing.

Since he includes many military experiences and insights in his work, he settled on writing Science Fiction. Anything else might have led to the inadvertent disclosure of classified information.
