From New York Times bestselling author Jonathan Maberry, NecroTek is a gripping sci-fi thriller full of ghosts, gods, and a battle for the soul of humanity.
Neither cosmic philosopher Lars Soren, hotshot pilot Bianca Petrescu, nor the high priestess Jessica McHugh—Lady Death herself—can say quite where in the galaxy they are. But after an experiment gone horribly wrong, one thing is clear: Asphodel Station isn’t in orbit around Jupiter any longer. Worse, the monsters that live out here—ancient eldritch beings thought only to exist in stories and nightmares—have now been alerted to Earth’s existence.
Their army of Shoggoths is coming for us next.
Humanity’s only hope for survival lies on the surface of the alien world of Shadderal, where a ghost named Lost, the last of an ancient race, still haunts the vast plains of the Field of Dead Birds. But hope has a cost. Lost tells Soren about ancient derelict spacecraft awaiting on Shadderal, shapeshifting machines that blend ultra-advanced technology with the dark powers of necromancy. These ships might just be nimble enough to defend mankind against the coming invasion.
But there’s a catch: they can only be piloted by the dead.
As human starfighters fall in battle, their spirits can be called back from death to pilot these ghost ships of a fallen race. But will this new necromantic technology—NecroTek—allow humanity to stand against the vast armies of the Shoggoths? And even if it can, is the war to save the human race worth the cost of its pilots’ immortal souls?

of the narrator, Ray Porter. My wife, kids and I love all of your work. we've listened to most of your narrations and we watch for you specifically. you've read books as my whole family have drifted off to sleep imagining adventures untold for years. thank you.
To Johnathan Maberry, I greatly enjoyed this book. you did an excellent job of capturing some of my favourite elements of lovecraft in your own way. in particular I loved the first third of the book, where it felt like you really pulled from the existential dread and psychological horror of how tiny we are in a vast and terrifying universe.
the latter half of this book drifted away from this, but replaced it with a feeling of indomitable human spirit struggling against all odds, and I liked that for entirely different reasons.
you genuinely made me feel connected to the characters of the book and the emotionally invested in all of them.
one element i struggled with, was the necrotek ships themselves. I struggled to visualise them and how they worked. I'd have perhaps liked to have had a bit more time with Lucky and lost trying to wrestle with the alienness of the technology, the alien AI and actually how it all works before we moved onto the big fight, but other than that, excellent work!
thank you for a wonderful adventure. on to the next!
