What if you had to choose between your mind and your heart? In the year 2101, most humans have given up their free will and connected their minds to an Artificial Intelligence. The only way to escape this tyranny is to live off-world, in the wild and dangerous frontier of Saturn and its moons. 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. Meet down on his luck ne'er-do-well, Caleb Day. Hoping to start a new life as a cop trainee in the colonies of Saturn, Caleb rediscovers that the law is not always fair and that some people are more equal than others. When he rescues a group of civilians from a brutal raid, he becomes a fugitive himself. The group must beg, borrow, and steal their way across Saturn's moons to survive. One refugee, an android named Bert-who was designed only to serve-disturbingly, and against all programming, seems to be developing human emotions and curiosity. Bastion Saturn is a swashbuckling space opera that explores the best and worst of humanity, while exploring the meaning of being human. It is a story of love, courage, and rebellion, set in a stunning and diverse solar system. If you like action-packed sci-fi with humor, romance, and twists, you will love this book by C. Chase Harwood.
