Pirates of the Asteroids Eric Martell

Pirate space: beware! All Adam wanted was his advanced degree and a girlfriend. What he got was betrayal, kicked out of University, and exiled to the Asteroid Belt.

The Asteroid Miners have just about had their fill of the oppressive Federal bureaucracy, and some of them are ready to take steps towards freedom. Adam arrives just in time to find himself involved with a budding revolution. Unfortunately, he had been working on a physics degree, and it wasn't as if there was a course of study on Practical Pirating offered at the University.

How does one become a pirate? Adam is about to figure it out.

This story is set against the background of the asteroid belt and filled with a mixture of existing technology and new inventions. It is a near future, wild and woolly journey around the solar system that provides what every reader wants: entertainment, adventure, humor, tragedy, and a little romance.
