Smuggler's Rebellion

Smuggler's Rebellion: Dawn of Defiance

Where stars stretch endless, freedom calls to the bold…

Jake Jones wants nothing more than to keep his battered freighter Lone Wolf flying and stay one step ahead of his creditors. No complications, no commitments—just the cold comfort of deep space and whatever smuggling job pays the bills.

But when a desperate princess and her defiant soccer-playing robot crash into his carefully constructed life, Jake finds himself caught in the dangerous slipstream between powerful empires. Princess Adara has fled the oppressive Ethnarch Kingdom with her soccer robot Number 34, both targeted by ruthless pursuers determined to drag them back to face execution. Reluctantly agreeing to transport them to the Women's Freedom Alliance, Jake navigates a treacherous course through asteroid fields and military blockades to reach the rebellion led by his former academy friend Ella Kuhn.

As they journey across the cosmic frontier aboard the Lone Wolf, their mission transforms when they uncover evidence of a devastating conspiracy that could ignite a galactic war. The unlikely crew forges bonds deeper than the void itself. The ship's AI co-pilot INCA offers wisdom beyond her programming, while Number 34 proves her worth with both soccer balls and courage. Together, they must outmaneuver Andrasian counterintelligence agents, brutal bounty hunters, and Adara's ambitious brother who will stop at nothing to recapture her.

For Jake, what begins as just another job transforms into something far more meaningful. As the lines blur between smuggler and revolutionary, he must confront the question that has haunted him since his academy days: what is he truly willing to fight for?

Smuggler's Rebellion: Dawn of Defiance is the exhilarating first installment in the Wild Frontier Chronicles, perfect for fans of The Mandalorian, Firefly, and The Expanse. This gripping space adventure blends high-stakes action with heart, humor, and a profound exploration of freedom's true cost. Join Jake and his crew as they navigate the razor's edge between tyranny and rebellion in a galaxy where courage might just be the most valuable cargo of all.
