Welcome to our new regular feature, #SnippetMonday.
Today I'm featuring the opening of Inherit the Stars, the anchor novel in the Inherited Stars Series. Since it's the introduction of the hero, no scene set-up is needed.

One chance. No mistakes.
Sair took a deep breath and peered out the open airlock of
the merchant ship. This was it. Make a wrong move now and he’d end up as the
main course at an Ithian feast. Heart pounding, he studied his escape route. No
threat in sight; he had a clear path to the street outside the hangar. He
gripped the edge of the hatch, palms slick, legs twitching.
Now.
