There's something out there. We've known about it for a long time. No one knows where it came from or who sent it. But one thing is certain: it wants us to find it.

The S.D.F. Jericho is a new ship, built from a new design, with a single purpose - to retrieve the artifact. She's still in the early stages of shakedown cruise when the call comes in. The artifact is at the far end of the solar system beyond Saturn's orbit. Only one ship has ever been built to travel that far, and once they pass Jupiter, they will be completely on their own.

Like every Fleet vessel, the Jericho has a platoon of Space Marines. They are all combat veterans, special forces, and Black Ops commandos. The Senior NCO, Master Sergeant Steel, is fresh from winning the Medal of Honor, but nothing in their training or experience has prepared them for what's to come.

Join the crew of the Jericho, led by Captain Zeke Darius, as they go on a mission that will change the course of human history forever. Artifact is the first book in a new military sci-fi series by master storyteller Toby Neighbors. Told from the point of view of the characters on the ship and full of action, Artifact will take your imagination to a place it has never gone before. Prepare yourself for an epic series that will instantly become one of your favorites. Artifact (Starship Jericho Book 1) is an all-out thrill ride that will keep you turning pages and leave you anxious for more.
