Ready, Aim, Fire!

Earth is dying. Jace Riven has five years to live. He only needs two to save humanity. In a future where Earth is scorched and civilization lives underground, solo harvesters risk their lives mining hostile alien worlds for vital resources. But when Jace, a terminally ill nobody, volunteers for the mission, no one expects him to last a week. Armed with a basic suit, a weak rifle, and a ticking clock in his DNA, Jace must survive savage alien wildlife, deadly terrain, and other harvesters, all while unlocking mysterious tech upgrades and outsmarting an evolving enemy.

After narrowly escaping the alien-infested world of Zeltrium, Jace returns to orbit scarred—but stronger. With each deployment, his skills sharpen. His chip loadout evolves. But World 3 was just the beginning. Now, Jace is introduced to the Global Harvesters Union—a private network of elite solo operators bound by strategy, secrets, and survival instincts honed in the deadliest corners of the galaxy. With the AI League pushing him to his limits, new upgrades changing the rules of combat, and new threats lurking in each mission, Jace must decide what kind of Harvester he wants to be.
