“... breathtaking” – Kirkus Reviews
Slipshot brings groundbreaking innovation, robust worldbuilding, and an unforgettable, action-packed plot. Welcome to the thrilling kickoff to a fast-paced, high-tech sci-fi adventure that will alter the landscape of your imagination.
Something’s not quite right in San Francisco. Phantom-like machines are crawling through the city streets, laser-wielding combatants are dueling in broad daylight, and people are falling out of black holes in the sky. Even stranger, Frederick, a young college student seems to be the only person who can see these outlandish occurrences.
Meanwhile, Opal Fremmity, an extraterrestrial Mechanic Class Slave hailing from the Griddish Realm, has been tasked with carrying out Earth's apocalyptic final dismantlement project. Her home realm is bound to Earth by a powerful technology known as the Slipshot, and her journey to Earth is merely the beginning of a far-reaching project eons in the making. When Frederick meets Opal and learns of his planet’s dark fate, it quickly becomes clear that he may be the only person capable of severing Griddish’s connection to Earth and helping Mechanic Class Slaves like Opal stand up against their own history.
"An enthralling continuation of a nimble, ultra-chic SF series." - Kirkus Reviews
Cythiria Crenshaw, Mechanic Class Slave, is a castaway on Var 7, also known as Farth. After the Slipshot was closed, she lost her connection to the Tenddrome when she was a child. Now, nearly ten years later, her early memories are scattered like the shards of a shattered mirror. So, why does she have those two burning scars on her forehead? And why does she feel like she’s always fighting to fit into a world that seems so alien to her
Meanwhile, Rive Amber, Bestiar Class Slave, has devised a plan to return Cythiria to her true origins, whether she wants to or not. To her, Cythiria is the key to the ultimate transformation of Griddish where the Slipshot will finally see its end. But at what cost to Cythiria, Griddish, and the Vars?
Slipshot Vol 2.0 continues the saga of Griddish, as the Slaves, Varlings, Vérkatrae, and Engineers struggle to finally bring an end to the Slipshot.
Slipshot Vol 3.0 picks up after the cataclysmic Great Re-Frag, with Cythiria Crenshaw hailed as a hero—but haunted by unanswered questions. Life in Griddish has changed, and when Blinky, her enigmatic Vérkatros friend, reappears with a mysterious injury and a cryptic message—"1 to the power of 1"—Cythiria is pulled into a new mystery that defies logic and threatens the fragile balance of the post-Re-Frag world.
As she searches for answers, Cythiria finds herself pursued across the Vars by a relentless new rival: Mora Thrembroke, a shadow from Rive Amber’s past with a bitter grudge and dark ambitions of her own. With allegiances tested and reality itself beginning to warp, Vol 3.0 deepens the Slipshot saga with new revelations, sharper tensions, and a looming question: can Cythiria solve the puzzle before everything unravels again?
