Static Ruin
ByPublisher Description
The most wanted space witch in the galaxy has no place left to run—except back to those who created her—in this sci-fi fantasy space opera.
She killed the man who trained her. She killed the fleet that came for her. She killed the planet that caged her. Now she must confront her father.
Mars Xi is on the run, a bounty on her head and a kill count on her conscience. All she has left are her mutant cat Ocho and her fellow human weapon Pale, a young boy wracked by seizures who can kill with a thought. She needs him treated, and she needs to escape, and the only thread left to pull is her frayed connection to her father, Marius Teo. That thread will take her to the outskirts of the galaxy, to grapple with witch-cults and privately-owned planets, and into the hands of the man who engineered her birth.

“The best of the series and a fitting ending for a fun and exciting series. I love how Mars is both endearing with those she loves and a planet destroying weapon, the juxtaposition is excellent and gives her a large amount of depth. Adding the cat-clone creature makes it even more fun overall.”

“A fast and fun read. The author appears to be deathly allergic to adverbs”
