Illegal Astronauts: Book 1
Pre-Order Now!
Earth is gone.
From the ashes of the most devastating conflict in human history, a new breed of spacer has emerged: Space-A-Gades. These illegal astronauts, privateers, and thrill seekers carve their living out from the fractured frontier worlds and within the concrete jungle of the city-planet Uruk. The new heart of inhabited space.
Among them is Cobalt. A drifter aboard the Knorr. A ship whose captain takes whatever jobs keep it flying. On what was sold as a routine milk run, Cobalt unearths a new anomalous catalyst. A fragment of infinite stellar possibility tied to the very elements that put the science of plasmatic fusion and near-FTL travel into the hands of humankind. This new, unknown power thrusts the Knorr's crew into a dangerous game of espionage, betrayal, and survival.
As the covert forces of the Syndicated Corporations and the Outcast Clans begin to close in, the crew must decide who will rise and what freedom among the stars is truly worth.
Illegal Astronauts is a grounded, semi-hard science fiction adventure focused on the human experience. Its words inspired by the cyberpunk classics and the literary sci-fi they were published alongside. Here you will find deep lore, and an exploration of loyalty, power, and what it means to be free.
Because here are people being people as the gears of the heavens turn.
Book One of the Illegal Astronauts saga.
