Centuries after Earth fell to a conquering alien empire and a fraction of humanity was relocated to Wanderhome; a sprawling zoo-world meant to protect endangered alien species under the Galactic Humane Protection Treaty. Now that sanctuary has rotted. Ruled by the cold bureaucracy of the Shatterstar Republic, Wanderhome is a dying planet where survival means outsmarting the system and each other.

In this forgotten frontier, two unlikely partners…Summer, a sharp-tongued human engineer, and Vopee, a washed-up, gun-slinging toad-like Krokian, scrape by until they discover Vermillion, a sentient alien tree that remembers what Wanderhome was meant to be. From its living city of Bloodwood, Vermillion calls on them to free the planet from its chains. Summer must gather a team unique alien misfits in order to hijack the republic’s mag-lev train Oroborus.

Wanderhome is a dusty, high-tech space western about freedom, found family, and the cost of breaking out of a cage you never asked to be in.
