Killswitch #1-3
Killswitch Omnibus: Books 1-3
Three books. One down-and-out cyborg. Zero chance of staying out of trouble.
Meet Jessie Coben, your typical cyborg dude -- brassy on the outside, sensitive on the inside, 91. 77% machine, but ‘all man’ (so he says). He’s just trying to keep his head down, avoid being recalled by the government for scrappage, and maybe earn enough to finally cut ties with his bloodsucking ex-wife. Simple, right?
Wrong.
When a mysterious and glamorous captain hires him for a “simple” transport job, Jessie is catapulted into a galaxy-wide mess involving pirates, assassins, social media influencers, megalomaniac AIs, and a conspiracy with roots twistier than his own cybernetic implants. With only his snarky uploaded dog to back him up, Jessie has to navigate lawless cities, hostile planets, and his own emotional damage to survive.
The Killswitch Books 1-3 comprises the first three books of this entertaining sci-fi mystery series, with fast-paced action, snappy banter, and surprising heart. It’s Murderbot meets The Dresden Files, with a sprinkling of The Wayfarer series and a whole lot of chaos.
Perfect for fans of John Scalzi, Martha Wells, or anyone who likes their space adventures with humour, grit, and just a little existential crisis.
