Spencer, Wen  
Endless Blue
When the warp drive from the long lost Fenrir spaceship reappears, the drive's computers say Fenrir has been lost in the hypothetical nowhere of subspace, but the housing is covered with coral and sea life. Faced with genocide at the hands of the alien Nefrim, humans need a miracle to survive. On the chance that Fenrir's mysterious location holds such a miracle, Captain Mikhail Volkov jumps into the unknown - and crashes into the endless blue of the Sargasso Sea, where every ship that misjumped from any race that discovered travel through subspace has landed.
