Description
In 2010, an alien virus nearly wiped out the human race. A thousand years later, mankind has recovered and ventured into space. There has been no sign of the aliens since. Humanity remains confined to the Solar System.
All that is about to change.
Mazzy Webber is a lowly janitor on a third-rate cargo ship. Deeply in debt, when his captain decides to turn pirate, he leaps at the chance.
A modern Robin Hood—minus the part where he gives back to the poor—Webber lays down a few ground rules. No attacking manned ships, and no stealing from anyone who can't afford it. Within months, he and the crew are out of debt. Their next target will make them rich.
But the attack goes all wrong. The target's cargo could be the death of them—or it could be the key to reaching the stars.

From the author of the bestselling BREAKERS novels, OUTLAW is the first book in a new series of piracy, conspiracy, and space's deadliest janitor.

5By RandyAtKCGreat journey to solve mankind’s newest mystery in a world ravaged by a virus released by an alien invasion. Well written book that takes the reader on a journey.Good Time
5By Mo-sloWhile this work blurs the line between sci-fi and fantasy a bit more than I care for, the story line is well done. The main characters are believable, if not fleshed-out significantly. It’s ALL the story line. For a casual, escape read it was fun. I recommend it for some time away from the realities of a young 21st century.Outlaw
