Stange Lusk is the most feared bounty hunter in the galaxy, but he may have met his match.

Brody is not only a deadly assassin but has strange powers. An aura of mystery and evil surrounds him.

Lusk has tracked him from planet to planet, from one crumbling alien city to the next, but at last his hunt his over. Brody, the assassin, has found his target. Will Lusk get the drop on him before he can take out his prey?

The answer to that launches Lusk on an action-packed journey through strange cities and stranger planets simmering with crime, conspiracies, aliens, robots and magic. The Galaxy has long since fallen into an epic state of ruin after the collapse of the Avorthirean Empire a million years ago, with only a few bright spots left. The rest has descended into chaos. Warring planets, bloodthirsty raiders, mysterious cults wielding strange powers, exotic alien cultures -- Stange Lusk calls it home. Only such an age could have produced a man like Lusk.

But could it be possible to save the galaxy, to return it to the ways of Avorthir before Brody and the evil that he represents plunge the whole cosmos into shadow and horror? Could grim, nihilistic, burnt-out Stange Lusk be the one to usher in a new age, an age of enlightenment and beauty? The answers lies on the Cosmic Road.

The Bounty is a fast-paced, action-packed series opener from New York Times Bestselling Author Jack Conner, author of The Atomic Sea series and The War of the Black Tower series. Think Stephen King's The Dark Tower series by way of The Incal by Moebius and Jodorowsky (the graphic novel that inspired the movie "The Fifth Element"). Part epic fantasy, part epic science fiction, but always full of headlong excitement and vivid imagination. Pick up "The Bounty" to join the adventure today.
