"THIS ISN'T LIKE IN THE NETSIMS!"

Jason is a NetShooter champion. Now he must do it for real.

The teen coding nerd escapes hi-tech slavery only to end up on a gloomy jungle moon guarding an archaeological expedition, literally lightyears in the wrong direction from the comfortable new life he planned.

And it's all the fault of crazy Uncle Max, the aging mercenary with second-hand combat systems and an antiquated ship held together by duct tape. To make matters worse, Max has the "brilliant" idea of telling the clients that Jason is a 500-year-old genetically modified super soldier!

Now Jason must protect his identity while tramping the mud, battling out-of-date firmware, and surviving the local wildlife. But can he really hide his age from the hot older girl with a thing for lonely immortals, or her jealous tech bro boyfriend? To rub salt into the wound, the local aliens are exhibitionistic sex maniacs. And, soldiering hurts.

At least nobody is shooting at him.

Yet.

He doesn't know about the murderous space Nazis and rampaging ancient killer robots…
