You're too kind. :D It's my first and only novel so far and I promise it's a total mess. I might return to it someday but for now it's stashed away lol.

But just to stir your imagination a little, it's called New Albion's Bargain. That scenario I mentioned is sort of a backdrop for the main events, which are inspired by the legend of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. In the original story, Sir Gawain sees his chivalric values challenged and suffers negative consequences every time he messes up. My treatment follows a starship captain who's given the chance to reject his authoritarian junta and empathize with the "rebels" who never agreed to being ruled in the first place.

I dare say it's a cool idea but I feel I don't quite have the skill or motivation to make it publishable. :/

Return to it one day! It sounds great. I think i read somewhere that Nolan had plans for the film Dunkirk, but didnt feel he had the skill or experience to make it what he wished. So he returned to it later on Good luck!
