The first book in a new series by the best-selling author of Live Free or Die.
Joseph Smith went to bed one night and opened his eyes in a hospital room that wasn’t on Earth.
The year was supposed to be 2025. The doctor said it was 3128. Joe was twenty-three again, scars gone, body reset—and everyone treated his memories of the twenty-first century as a side effect of long-term stasis.
Welcome to the Union of Free Worlds: heavily armed, lightly governed, and sitting next door to the Pax Romana, a slave-holding empire that has already decided the Union looks soft.
Joe does what he has always done. He rolls with it.
He learns the local rules (carry a gun, you are the police, don’t trust the government). He discovers that future food is an abomination and decides the galaxy needs real pizza. And when pirates and the Pax start taking people as slaves, he starts taking them back—one ship, one raid, one impossible rescue at a time.
