Being a legend is overrated…
Captain Axel Finn is bored out of his mind being a peacetime hero, so when a murdered scientist’s final message reveals coordinates to a mythical planet, he and the Trash Squid crew jump at the chance for a new adventure. They’ve got a small window to reach it before it vanishes—and they’re not the only ones racing to get there first.
With hostile forces on their tail, the crew plunges into uncharted space chasing a mystery that’s consumed civilizations and left bodies in its wake. Some legends are worth hunting down, others are better left buried—and Axel’s about to find out which kind he’s chasing.
Note: This is a novella and is meant to be read after book 3, The Last Lion.
