Description
When humankind's first contact with a strange alien species goes awry, detective and Ark hero Brian Benson is left to pick up the pieces Against all odds, the Ark and her thirty-thousand survivors have reached Tau Ceti G to begin the long, arduous task of rebuilding human civilization. Meanwhile, on the other side of the world, Tau Ceti G's natives, the G'tel, are coming to grips with the sudden appearance of what many believe are their long-lost Gods. But first contact between humans and G'tel goes catastrophically wrong, visiting death on both sides. Rumors swirl that the massacre was no accident. The Ark's greatest hero, Bryan Benson, takes on the mystery. Partnered with native 'truth-digger' Kexx, and against both of their better judgment, Benson is thrust into the heart of an alien culture with no idea how to tell who wants to worship him from who wants him dead. Together, Benson and Kexx will have to find enough common ground and trust to uncover a plot that threatens to plunge both of their peoples into an apocalyptic war that neither side can afford to fight.

Reviews
"Another amazing story with all the twists and turns I've come to expect from Patrick S. Tomlinson. With a great mix of science fiction, action and mystery it is wonderfully written and it's not "world" building but as the author said it's 'race building', so don't miss out on the turbulent ups and downs that had me undeniably hooked throughout the entire thing."
- Books in Brogan "A solid read, and one I definitely recommend."
- Strange Currencies "I could not put Trident's Forge down, and read it in one marathon sitting. That is as much due to the writing style and characters as the non-stop, nail-biting story thread. If you're an outer space sci-fi geek like I am, you're going to love this series!"
- Popcorn Reads "If you've not tried The Ark, I'd start there first - but come back to this one, it'll reward your effort."
- Sci-Fi and Fantasy Reviews "Trident's Forge, by Patrick S. Tomlinson is a wild space opera story, full of mystery and plenty of action and makes for an entertaining read."
