It’s the end of the 21st Century. The bulk of Humankind has conjoined itself with an artificial intelligence. A minority remain in opposition. A desperation has taken hold within the unincorporated zones where free humans still live. Many of them are choosing to leave Earth forever and fly to colonies on the moons of Saturn. In an ancient diner, Spruck Jones is about to make a bold move to change his flagging fortunes. Even the best laid plans almost never go as planned. The Last Rats is a short prequel that introduces the reader to some of the characters and the underlying world that is the basis for the space opera, Bastion Saturn.
From the Publisher
Need a rip-roaring space adventure?
Book 1 in the Saturn Series
What if most humans chose to tie their minds to an Artificial Intelligence? What if man had conquered the Solar System and what if the only place to be free of that AI was living off-world? What if Earthlings decided Off-Worlders were a threat… In 2101, Saturn and its vast system of moons are the wild frontier. The only caveats to living there: the funds to fly a billion miles into space and a pledge to keep vigil against the threat of AI. Otherwise, what you do out there is your business.
Book 2 in the Saturn Series
The ringed planet and its moons remain the Wild West as Pirates of Saturn delves into the meaning of what makes us human, and what is freedom anyway? Exploring these truths—space is hard, relationships are complicated, sh_t happens, and just as art is subjective, evil is often defined by the eye of the beholder—Pirates remains a romp. Enjoy the romp

Author C. Chase Harwood (aka Chris)
C. Chase Harwood made a career in Hollywood, decorating sets for film and television before turning his passion for storytelling into clicks on a keyboard. While scaling the walls of the screenwriting world, he chose to experiment with prose and found a fondness for Scifi-action-adventure. Within that framework, he gets to explore the countless ways that humans interact while under duress. “Life is all the more lived when the consequences are high. When told as a tale it can be quite a page-turner,” says Harwood. He lives in Southern California with his costume designer wife and young boy girl twins.
