Description
A pirate corvette. A spaceship graveyard. And the Warded Gunslinger, out for blood!
I put down the drill, running my fingertip over the ward engraved in the thick slab of spaceship armor plate, feeling for any uneven parts.
I take my work seriously. It’s what keeps me alive.
Jake – the Warded Gunslinger – has a broken ship, an extremely valuable pet void dragon hatchling sleeping in his cabin, and the hope of running away to live quietly with them both.
But with an unidentified, heavily armed corvette on his trail, a new one heading to cut him off, and an engine that explodes mid-flight, it looks like “live quietly” means “go hide.”
Problem is, there’s not much to hide behind in space…
A Graveyard in the Sky is a short novel of guns and magic in a distant future, where dragons are real, warp-stone ships roam the galaxy, and sometimes, the only thing to hide behind is the corpse of your enemy. It’s got cowboys and privateers, found family, true companions, and magitech in a sprawling space opera.
A Graveyard in the Sky is the second standalone novel in the Warded Gunslinger series: short, action-packed novels/novellas in the style of the old SF and Western pulps – an equal mix of Star Wars and the Clint Eastwood/Sergio Leone spaghetti westerns, that you can read in an hour or two.
