Meet the Space Punks—the only ones crazy enough to challenge the Pentad’s supreme power…

David wakes up in a high-security prison on the forsaken Martian moon Deimos with no memory of his past. A chance encounter with Aztec, a deadly purple-haired cyborg, propels him into a daring jailbreak. She brings him on board a mysterious warship manned by the most notorious and badass crew of the galaxy—the Space Punks.

One hundred years ago AI waged a devastating war against its human creators. Humanity won, but barely and at a horrible price. Ever since, the solar system has been strictly controlled by the Pentad, a ruthless coalition of megacorporations.

As David tries to regain his memory, he finds himself fighting battles between mechs, cyborgs, robots and super-soldiers alongside his new brothers and sisters-in-arms.

But is there more to the Space Punks than meets the eye? Everyone on board, human and cyborg alike, seems to have their own secret agenda.

Needless to say, the Pentad sends out their best people to get rid of this unruly menace.

And in the shadows lurks the seemingly defeated enemy, a threat to all humankind, ready to strike again…

Space Punks is a sexy, adrenaline-fueled ride for fans of Firefly and Guardians of the Galaxy!

Two very different soldiers with one common goal: survival.

When a distress signal is received from a black-ops space station on the edge of inhabited space, Captain Saul Harris of the UNF Aurora is called in from leave to respond.

But the mission is not what it seems.

Information is thin on the ground and three new recruits have been added to the Aurora crew. For Corporal Carrie Welles, one of the Aurora’s new recruits, her first mission in space seems like a dream come true. Determined to achieve the success of her father before her, and suddenly thrust into a terrifying mission, she must work with her new captain and the strained Aurora crew to make it home alive.

When the Aurora arrives at the station Harris and Welles soon find themselves caught up in a desperate fight for survival. Station Darwin is not what they expected. The lights are off, but somebody is home…
