Book 1 is now available for free on Amazon. Following books can be found on KU here. A rogue cyborg. A talking badger. A bounty job that goes incredibly wrong. Aaron is perfectly content to chase bounties in his run-down little space ship, avoid human interaction at all cost, and lay low from the cyborg planet that created him. But when he and Bathis half-robotic badger companion (who talks just a little too much)chase their largest bounty ever, they run head-first into not only some dangerous criminals, but other cyborgs much stronger than them, and worst of all, a handful of humans who aren't going anywhere. What you can expect from In Dying Starlight: - Heaps of fast-paced adventure and odd planets - A stubborn MC in over his head and trying to survive - A talking, half-robot badger who likes fixing space ships - Allllll the found family vibes - An atrocious amount of sarcasm and snark - A tiny bit of romance a ways into the story Chapters between 1k-3k words.
