Starflight’s hero, Lt. Cmdr. Torrance Black, is an officer on a ship that will establish humanity’s first efficient FTL system. But saboteurs onboard object to corporate control of the technology, and some of his fellow officers have motives less than honorable. Then, there are signals from interstellar space that may be from an alien civilization, but his bosses want to cover them up. All this intrigue puts his career in jeopardy, threatens his love life, and sets a bad example for his young engineering protégé. Author Ron Collins is a journeyman author who developed this novel from a story originally published in Analog. Before his writing career took off, Collins worked as an aeronautical engineer.
