About USS Primis: The First Starship: A Hard Sci-Fi Slow Burn in Space:
“A classic sci-fi read that wears its influences on its sleeve, that is sure to please die hard fans of the genre.” – Reedsy Discovery Must Read, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Humanity’s last hope comes down to a twisted, claustrophobic game of cat and mouse hundreds of light years away from home.
After the fallout of an ill-advised space war leaves Earth teetering on the edge of doom, Commander Davis leads the first manned mission to recolonize our species on far away planet Nova.
The mission is rushed and thrown together last minute, just like its crew. When it all suddenly goes horribly wrong hundreds of light years away from both Earth and Nova, it’s up to David to save the mission, the ship, and the human race itself.
Will Davis succeed against all odds? Or is he, like the mission, doomed to be lost in deep space forever?

Author Bio:
Nicknamed ‘The Human Resource’ by their friends due to their penchant for pulling random facts out of thin air, they wrote their first short story when they were young, scribbling away with a stubby pencil and a dollar store spiral-bound notebook. Ever since then, they’ve been hooked, writing all sorts of wacky, funny, scary, and heart-breaking stories.
M.H. writes to express themself, their thoughts, ideas, and emotions. They also have a deep interest in how fiction connects to reality and how character arcs mirror our own lives.
M.H. Altis has written several books, from 250,000-word epics to 50,000-word dashes, and even more short stories. With a growing unreleased catalogue, they decided it was finally time to share their creations with the world.
With curiosities and creations ranging from medieval times to outer space, alternate universes to the one we inhabit, and everything in between, you’ll be sure to find something you love.
They believe that great stories arise when world-building meets believable characters – in other words, where plot and human drama intersect.
This is the place where awards would usually go. They have no awards (yet). Boooooooooooooo.
