About The Price of Freedom Part 1: Ghuraj to Arkon
The Price of Freedom: Part 1: Ghuraj to Arkon by Gene Rowe
When Anda com Durrel is offered the chance to access the forbidden gaming tech and gene-engineered creatures of the insular League of Free Spirits, the opportunity to challenge his brother as head of an entertainment empire is one he can’t resist. His price? Bankrolling the breakout of the son of an LFS matriarch from the maximum-security prison planet, Ghuraj.
Narovy Sarok is a desperate crime lord, betrayed and hunted across the Confederation. For him, taking a commission to break a prisoner out of Ghuraj is the definition of insanity – but right now he’s all out of options.
For Dr Irvan Sentain, the chance to visit Ghuraj to interview an LFS inmate as part of a task force addressing ‘the Leaguer Question’ is a professional dream come true.
And for Elian Omdanan, a precocious youth from an Environmentalist world, a conviction for murder means Ghuraj is a destination over which he has no choice.
These four and others will come together on Ghuraj on the first step of a path leading to the worlds of the League, where perils await far greater than any to be found on the deadly prison planet…

Author Bio:
Gene Rowe is an academic/ consultant/ writer. Born in Bedford, England (1966: the Glorious Year!), he moved around a lot as a child thanks to his father’s job in the United States Air Force (his father is a Mainer). He read psychology at Bristol University and subsequently completed a PhD at the Bristol Business School. After several academic postings (his last being as Head of Consumer Science at the Institute of Food Research, Norwich), he set up his own consultancy (Gene Rowe Evaluations) in 2010. All was rosy until COVID, which essentially finished off his business. He now writes on a near-full-time basis. His first solo novel – The Greater Game (2022; White Cat Publications) – is a science fiction adventure with inadvertent Brexit allegories (though an even-handed take). Since 2022, he has been co-editor of the British Science Fiction Association’s ‘Fission’ anthologies (with Eugen Bacon). His next novel (a two-parter) will be released shortly through Ministry of Lies publishing.
