Two stories. Two futures. A priceless legacy being lost…and found.
Kilroy is a down-and-out space pirate wannabe with a rickety ship and even ricketier dreams. He's dedicated his life to finding his family's illustrious legacy, a hidden pirate hoard of unimaginable wealth. With that kind of money, he could make a name for himself on the galactic stage! However, the legacy may be more, or less, than simply cash-money and it's going to lead him to questions, answers, self-reflection…and maybe even a chance to save the galaxy! Because that's always how these things go, right?
But, in order for a legacy to be lost, it first has to be made. In the distant past (from Kilroy's perspective), the most powerful figures in the galaxy are…past their prime. The greatest hacker the intranet has ever known has settled into his life as a grandfather, and the most feared pirate lord has faded into myth and legend after rotting in jail for decades. Nobody's looking for adventure but it's going to find them when a secretive enemy force appears that knows everything about them, even before they do! It's a chance for cowards to become heroes and heroes to be…well, still heroes.
Ian Karkasy's debut novel is science-fiction done right. Action to keep you on the edge of your seat, revolving around slow-burning mysteries that grow in scope with every revelation. If you're a fan of impossible stories and improbable heroes, you owe it to yourself to read Legacy Lost and Found!
