Powell. Plot summaryIn an age where interstellar travel is dangerous and unpredictable, and no-one knows exactly where they ll end up, Avril Bradley is a Communications officer onboard a ship sent to re-contact as many of these lost souls as possible. But a mysterious explosion strands her in a world of political intrigue, espionage and subterfuge; a world of retired cops, digital ghosts and corporate assassins who fight for possession of computer data that had lain undisturbed for almost a century. . . Ebook editionAs Silversands was only produced in a limited run in hardcover, online publisher Anarchy Books released a mass-market ebook edition in April 2012, including the bonus short story "Memory Dust". Critical receptionThe novel received mostly favorable reviews, including reviews from Interzone and Eric Brown in The Guardian. Brown regarded the novel as a "fine hi-tech romp" but was critical of what he called "a rushed and melodramatic dénouement."[1] References1. ^{{cite news|last=Eric Brown|title=Science fiction review roundup|url=https://www.theguardian.com/books/2010/apr/10/science-fiction-roundup|accessdate=15 December 2012|newspaper=The Guardian|date=10 April 2010}} External links
