'''Jameson/Jones: Supermassive''' is a forthcoming ''[[Elite Dangerous]]'' novel written and illustrated by André Czausov.

The story explores the tension between an ageing Commander Jameson and a hotheaded young gangster/bounty hunter, as they meet under fire and then struggle for supremacy in space, all the while stalked by a galaxy-spanning evil that will require their combined skills to survive. This theme in part represents the gulf between the old game of Elite and its newer, flashier incarnation ~~-- as~~ a kind of homage to the ~~effort~~ to revive it.

The story explores the tension between an ageing Commander Jameson and a hotheaded young gangster/bounty hunter, as they meet under fire and then struggle for supremacy in space, all the while stalked by a galaxy-spanning evil that will require their combined skills to survive. This theme in part represents the gulf between the old game of ''[[Elite]]'' and its [[Elite Dangerous|newer, flashier incarnation]]—as a kind of homage to the mighty efforts of Braben & Co to revive it. It also represents a tip of the hat to the potential age range between the oldest and newest players of the revised game.

A number of included story elements will be the product of in-book rewards granted to individual supporters of the original crowdfund at Pozible.

The book ~~is planned to be around 90k words in length~~, and ~~a suite~~ of ~~original illustrations will be incorporated into~~ the ~~PDF edition~~. The ~~ebook~~ is ~~due to be released~~ in ~~late February 2014~~. ~~A website~~ for the book ~~is currently being developed~~.

The most complete PDF editions of the book will also include a teaser copy of Void magazine, a parody/community news journal featuring serious and not-so-serious content for players and dreamers of Elite Dangerous.

This book is not yet released, the last update at the dedicated website concerning the book was on 28 December 2016. The author wrote, ''"The project continues, but is in metamorphosis. Formal update coming shortly. My thanks to you all for your patience during a pretty difficult phase of life for me."'' There was no update beyond the author's congratulations on David Braben's birthday on 2 January 2017. After years, it is not clear if the book will ever come out.<ref>[http://suprmasv.czausov.com/ Jameson/Jones:Supermassive]</ref>
