The shape of it
The shape of this universe.
Star Breakers is a fast, funny science-fiction graphic novel series launched by Ed Caruana and illustrator Chris Hazeldine. It follows thirteen-year-old Zeke Zero, abandoned as a baby and scraping by until he is press-ganged into a scrappy crew of Star Breakers, salvagers who scour dying worlds for incredible treasures. What begins as a hunt for an ancient god's eyeball turns into an accidental, galaxy-spanning race to keep the universe from falling into the wrong hands. With the swagger of Guardians of the Galaxy and the treasure-hunting thrills of Indiana Jones, the series pairs loud action and non-stop jokes with warm, prickly crew dynamics and a hero learning where he belongs. It is built for readers who like their space adventures big, comic and full of heart.
A loud, funny space-salvage graphic novel with Guardians of the Galaxy swagger, perfect for fans of Amulet and Percy Jackson.
