Crash by Guy Haley

Last weekend I took my kid to a local mall to hang out with friends.
Having not taken time for my daily run, I took the mall opportunity to just walk for my daily exercise.
I circled the mall about 3 times, then wandered into Barnes & Noble, wherein I purchased Crash by Guy Haley, then spent some time sitting in a quiet corner of the mall drinking tea and reading this book.




I've never read this author before, but I spent so much time wandering about B&N and wanting ALL THE BOOKS,
and just wanted to find something to occupy some time waiting for my kid, and when I grabbed this one, the blurb
on the jacket sounded interesting.

Overview
THE 0.01% HAVE DECIDED EARTH IS HISTORY
Dariusz is an engineer whose career ended years ago; now, a man he’s never met sits in a bar that doesn’t exist and offers him a fresh start... at a price. Cassandra – ‘Sand,’ to her friends – is a space pilot, who itches to get her hands on the controls and actually fly a ship, rather than watch computers do it for her.
The ‘Pointers’ – the elite 0.01% who control virtually all wealth – have seen the limitations of a plundered Earth and set their eyes on the stars. And now Dariusz and Sand, and a half-million ambitious men and women just like them, are sent out to extend the Pointers’ and the Market’s influence across the galaxy.
But the colony fleet is sabotaged and the ESS Adam Mickiewicz crashes, on an alien planet where one hemisphere is seared by perpetual daylight and the other shrouded in eternal night. The castaways have the chance to create society from scratch... if they're not destroyed by the hostile planet –
or their own leaders – before they can even begin.

Pretty good so far. It has various elements that interest me, SCIFI on other worlds, politics, technology...I'm looking forward to reading more of it. It touches on a lot of political matters and other topics that are relevant today, such as the 1% monopolizing resources, privacy being a myth, and, of course, space exploration.
