The debut short fiction collection from Jeremy Szal
Broken Stars combines previously published short stories and novelettes with new and exciting tales, ranging from space opera to military SF to science-fantasy and everything in-between.
Tales of broken heroes fighting for hope in dark worlds, full of aliens and outcasts, drug dealers and bounty hunters, mercenaries and soldiers. Tales of far-flung worlds where the lines between machine and human become blurred, the humanity of monsters is explored, and victory always comes with a heavy price. In these eighteen stories, violence explodes, betrayals abound, and no one is safe.
A smuggler for alien drugs is thrust into a high stakes of subterfuge and interstellar drug trades, only to find herself out of her depth.
Yharv, a mercenary, must escort the King through a besieged city and see him crowned. The only problem is, Yharv isn’t human, and neither is the king, and nonhumans usually end up dead in a gutter. And luck has never been on Yharv’s side.
An alien and a human fight to liberate a planet where aliens are treated as second-class citizens. But freedom comes at a steep price.
A kidnapped warrior discovers her memories may not be her own, and she may be on the wrong side of her war.
And many more . . .
