Full Synopsis

Star Trek meets Leverage in a space opera that's "refreshingly hopeful and heaps of fun" (author Megan E. O'Keefe).

Jasper Wilder is an activist, not a spy, but he'll become one if that's what it takes to stop Ravel Corporation from reviving the research project that devastated his home planet.

His plan is simple enough: Break into the secure facility. Steal the data. Find a weakness and sabotage the project. But all that goes out the airlock when he meets Havoc, a passionate but politically naive labor organizer trying to reform Ravel from within.

Havoc could help Jasper, but instead, he's fighting for a lost cause. Jasper knows that if he sticks with his own plan, Havoc will likely take the blame—and Ravel doesn't treat activists kindly.

With a security operative closing in, and time running out to sabotage the deadly project before it launches, Jasper needs to find a way to team up with Havoc . . . before his mission hurts the person he's coming to care about.

Full of adventure and suspense, LGBTQ+ characters, found family, a sentient spaceship with anxiety issues, and hijinks galore, Warped State is sure to delight fans of Ann Leckie, Becky Chambers, and Martha Wells.
