How many starcaptains do you know with bones made of solid steel?Captain Tayne Sondar finds things. Lost things. Stolen things. Whatever the client's willing to pay standard Intergalactic Guild of Finders rates to track down. It's a good job, with a steady paycheck (and a 10% discount at Sigma's Starship Outfitters), but every once in a while, you wind up looking for something you wish you'd never agreed to look for.Case in point. IGF item PX-119207E. A stolen datastick containing a revolutionary formula that could save trillions of lives. On the surface, it seemed like a simple enough mission.

If he doesn't get the datastick back, the entire universe is going to become as devoid of life as an orbital cemetery.And as if that wasn't enough to worry about, Tayne's forced to work alongside two freakish aliens - one with a habitual love of backstabbing, the other with a proven track record of eating human flesh - a pink feline with an eyepatch fixation.It's a good thing Tayne's just had the bearings in his skeleton oiled...Spark is the first novel in the hot new YA space opera series Star Inferno(TM).
