Tyler Jones is ready to recruit the squad of his dreams, but his own boneheaded heroism sees him stuck with the dregs nobody else in the Academy would touch:
A cocky diplomat with a black belt in sarcasm
A sociopath scientist with a fondness for shooting her bunkmates
A smart-ass tech-whiz with the galaxy’s biggest chip on his shoulder
An alien warrior with anger management issues
A tomboy pilot who’s totally not into him, in case you were wondering.

And Ty’s squad isn’t even his biggest problem – that’d be Aurora Jie-Lin O’Malley, the girl he’s just rescued from interdimensional space. Auri is a girl out of time and out of her depth and she could be the catalyst that starts a war millions of years in the making.

Tyler’s squad of losers, discipline-cases and misfits might just be the last hope for the entire galaxy. NOBODY PANIC.

‘Us outsiders gotta stick together.’
