A barefoot hippie who hates authority. A cowboy loyal past the point of reason. A drunken genius who thinks he’s a pirate. A flamboyant brother with no filter.
They only wanted freedom. Instead, they stole an alien starship, triggered an interstellar war, and became the most dangerous wildcards in the galaxy.
Temple Mason never planned on being a captain—she just wanted to escape rules, expectations, and the wreckage of her past. But when she and her misfit crew stumble onto a hidden spacecraft buried in a limestone cave, they’re launched into deep space by accident… and straight into the tractor beam of the dreaded Fog Pirates.
Now the four disgraced former sailors have to learn how to fly a ship they don’t understand, survive a war they didn’t start, and outsmart the Corporation—Earth’s secret shadow government that wants them silenced permanently. Their only advantages: a stolen ship full of alien tech, a talent for bad decisions, and an unbreakable loyalty to one another… even when they’re ready to strangle each other.
As Temple battles for control of the Star Fire I, she discovers that leadership isn’t about rank—it’s about courage, compromise, and knowing when to break every rule. Tyler’s engineering brilliance might save them, if his whiskey doesn’t kill him first. Memphis’ reckless loyalty becomes both their greatest weakness and their only glue. And Porter? He just wants to find a planet where sequined jumpsuits are standard attire.
But alien worlds aren’t postcard-perfect. Some eat you alive. Some judge you as an enemy on sight. And some hide threats older and darker than the Fog Pirates themselves.
The closer they get to answers, the more Temple realizes the real war isn’t between Earth and the Fog Pirates… it’s between those who control the truth, and those who dare to live free.
Fast-paced, chaotic, heartfelt, and laugh-out-loud unpredictable, The Flight of the Star Fire I launches a space-opera adventure where every plan is a bad plan, every hero is flawed, and even the universe can’t decide whether to kill this crew—or cheer them on.
Perfect for fans of Firefly, Guardians of the Galaxy, and The Expanse—if all three were written after one too many tequila shots.
The people are the point. The ship is just the excuse.
And the universe has no idea what’s coming.
