Synopsis

512 years in the future.
Not your typical Thursday morning.
Five centuries from now, ex-navy officer Diana Singh commands the monumental luxury spaceliner the 'Symphony of the Stars'. None of her crew knows their ship is smuggling a treasure worth millions. None of them knows which one of them is the serial killer. As Captain Singh pilots the mighty cruise ship back to base, she races to unmask the murderer in their midst before they can kill again.
So, not the most convenient time to be attacked by pirates... "I am Captain Salazar Sharp, here to claim what is wrongfully mine!" For the flamboyant leader of the pirates, infiltrating the 'Symphony' is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. But the secret treasure that could make him and his crew filthy rich is only the beginning; his ultimate goal is a far greater prize...
'Symphony Under Siege' is a witty sci-fi adventure packed with heroic exploits, twists and turns, nail-biting cliffhangers, and daring escapes. If you like rollicking, fast-paced sci-fi with a sense of humour, then you'll love this exuberant debut novel from veteran TV comedy writer Stephen Hall. Buy 'Symphony Under Siege' today and get on board the adventure!

I won this book through goodreads. It's a futuristic story about a luxury spaceliner that normally caters to the rich and famous as an extremely posh vacation destination. This trip however, is devoid of guests and running on a skeleton crew. Also unbeknownst to most of the crew, they are carrying a......more

Goodreads review by Lacey on February 13, 2021

I really liked the premise of this, I just wish it had been a little more detailed in its execution. The only characters that are given a backstory are the captains and with this motley crew there could have been some seriously fun and fascinating stories here. The story itself was cutesy and there......more

Entertaining sf This is a Sci fi novel that isn't quite sure what it wants to be. But it really doesn't matter because it is entertaining. Mystery? After all, we have a serial killer on board. Military? Several ex navy personnel. And it's funny. If you like your sf with some multiple personalities, t......more
