Star Trek meets Leverage in a space opera that's "refreshingly hopeful and heaps of fun" (author Megan E. O'Keefe). Jasper Wilder is an activist, not a spy, but he'll become one if that's what it takes to stop Ravel Corporation from reviving the research project that devastated his home planet. His plan is simple enough: Break into the secure facility. Steal the research data. Find a weakness and sabotage the project. But all that goes out the airlock when he meets Havoc, a passionate but politically naive labor organizer trying to reform Ravel from within. Havoc could help Jasper, but instead, he's fighting for a lost cause. Jasper knows that if he sticks with his own plan, Havoc will likely take the blame-and Ravel doesn't treat activists kindly. With an elite security operative closing in, and time running out to sabotage the deadly project before it launches, Jasper needs to find a way to team up with Havoc. before his mission hurts the person he's coming to care about. Full of adventure and suspense, LGBTQ+ characters, found family, a sentient spaceship with anxiety issues, and hijinks galore, Warped State is sure to delight fans of Ann Leckie, Becky Chambers, and Martha Wells.  Praise for Warped State  "Refreshingly hopeful and heaps of fun, Warped State will keep you turning pages late into the night." - Megan E.
