Alias Brink is a Captain, and one of the most feared and respected pirates in all of Known Space. The only problem is that he is not in it. He is stranded on a small rock of moon, after a successful mutiny by Yendii, his First Mate. The ship in question, the starcraft known as the Nova Winter is a Man O War class Ship-Beast; and Brink wants it back.

What follows is a tale of high adventure in deep space, as the rogue seeks to charm, manipulate, trick, and outright threaten his way back into the Captain’s seat. His journey includes crossing all of the Six Systems, and facing the Flesh Eaters; from meeting with Stellar Dukes and finally entering into the most dangerous race in all of the known universe: the Stormhold Games.

Along the way Brink encounters old friends, enemies, and lovers, and is forced to rely on no other person nor ship for his survival. Is he really the Captain that he thought he was? And what is he the Captain of, if he has no craft?

Void Captain is a serial SF story set in the far future, which paints an unusual and innovative picture of life in deep space. In this exciting and intriguing story we encounter living ships made from the bodies of deep-space creatures, as well as entire worlds created out of water. In a setting like no other currently being explored, the adventures of Void Captain point towards a much greater, and wonderful universe yet to explore!
