A damaged engine. An otherworldly crystal moon. As Aaron and crew leave Amethyst in the dust, they head into the depths of space, to the floating city where Aaron knows they can enact their plan. With Zane and Lalia in their own ship and Aaron and Bat trapped in there’s with a rather vexing princess, it’s a waiting game of reaching their destination before Captain or other bounty hunters realize the royal has once again disappeared. Before their objective is even in sight, a sudden and mysterious engine failure in Aaron’s old rust bucket of a ship has them scrambling to find a new crystal. In the midst of an asteroid storm, they hunker down on Taloon, a nearby mining moon where they can not only wait out the storm, but buy what they need. Tensions rise between Aaron and the princess not only as they and the others are trapped underground, but as it becomes clear Aaron’s not the only cyborg in the crystal-lined caverns. Sabotage is the fifth episode in the action-packed space opera series In Dying Starlight. Featuring a grumpy sarcastic cyborg, a talking badger, plenty of space travel, a cast of oddball characters, and a bit of romance later on, In Dying Starlight is perfect for fans of Star Wars, Firefly, and Blade Runner.
