In the Age of Interstellar Travel, the gift of an unlimited energy source helps humanity reach the stars. But every gift has its price…

A thousand years after joining the Galactic Trade Community, Earth is on the verge of collapse. With the planet over-populated and depleted of energy resources, a no-prospects energy miner like Axel Ryan has only two choices: enlist in the military or forge his own path.

Believing he has a calling beyond the perimeters of a life of service, Axel plunges into a quest in search of the rarest energy source in the galaxy. The power of a Stardrive could solve Earth’s energy crisis and secure Axel’s future. Unfortunately, he’s not the only one hunting for it.

Mercenaries-for-hire.
Cyborg bounty hunters.
Gangs of cargo pirates.
Trade Commissioners.

Encountering one danger after another, Axel’s survival depends on determining potential allies from those eager to see him dead.

The fate of Earth as well as his own hangs in the balance. But how can Axel beat the odds against him and claim the energy source? Or is it destined it fall into the hands of one eager to wield it for mass destruction?
