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 of savage worlds, 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 . . .
