Captain Rask is broke, hunted, and very nearly out of oxygen. When a botched heist lands him a legendary ship with a damaged AI—and a crew of misfits who can’t agree on breakfast, let alone survival—he does what any half-decent pirate would: runs. But The Meridian is more than a getaway vehicle. It’s carrying secrets the Empire would kill for, and worse—its new passengers might actually start trusting each other.

The Emperor's daughters are coming to the Frontier... with an illegally seized warfleet for unknown purposes. They are raiding for supplies, or receiving them from sympathizers as they cut a path across the Empire encouraging all who will listen to rise up and overthrow their father.

Caught between a local crime lord and thugs from a galaxy-spanning syndicate, Carl needs to come up with a plan that doesn’t get them all killed.

After decades of model-trained AIs wreaking havoc across the globe, humanity is ready to try something a little more…human.
