They hope to gain control over the House of Wisdom and make their home there, free from the Councils control where they can just go about their business.
They believe they’ve been harassed by the Councils for wanting to live outside the government’s purview in the wastelands. Those who have hijacked the shuttle are part of a cult run by a shitty man named Adam Light. The hijackers needs access to the House of Wisdom and they believe Jas’s credentials are still valid for the ship that has become nothing more than an orbiting tomb. But things go awry when their shuttle is hijacked. Now an adult, Jas and his fellow postgrad research fellows are waiting to board a shuttle to the Moon where they will conduct further research. The only survivor of the House of Wisdom was a young boy named Jaswinder Bhattacharya, whose parents perished on the ship. The governing Councils put out a statement that a disease was released onboard by a disgruntled scientist, Dr. Within a day, everyone on board began dying, turning violent toward one another or themselves.
They assumed those people found another sustainable planet following the Collapse and were alerting others to their discovery. The House of Wisdom was a large research vessel investigating a message leftover from a previous Earth civilization. Two people whose pasts are intertwined are left stranded aboard a ship where hundreds of people were massacred by a mysterious illness ten years ago. That’s a good thing because I love those movies (and the video game) very much. Though not without its faults, it reminds me very much of the Alien franchise. It’s the fucked-up space horror I’d been trying and failing to find for weeks.
Salvation Day was exactly the book I was searching for. CW/TW: This book is incredibly gross and gory and features murder and self-harm by way of a deadly space disease.
