Reviews
"Moreci's debut novel is a delightful mash-up of genre tropes: a reluctant hero, swashbuckling space adventure, martial arts, an evil empire, a scrappy band of outcasts, and a sentient killer robot. It's a loving ode to the science fiction Moreci grew up with. The pacing is fast and exciting, strong on action and generous with humor." -- Booklist "A propulsive space opera that is also an unapologetic love letter to Star Wars. . . . Impossible not to love . . . . From intergalactic space battles to blaster fights to rogue robots and various hives of scum and villainy, this shiny space opera is bound to be a pleasure for fans of all stripes." -- Kirkus Reviews "Moreci delivers a story that recalls his work for the Star Wars franchise: it brims with exotic locales, weird aliens, an evil empire, and a Jedilike hero with a cohort of misfits. . . . Moreci's sci-fi adventure delivers plenty of action." -- Publishers Weekly "Moreci's novel starts off his intended trilogy with flair: it's a bold space opera of a book, and like any good space opera, it introduces us to a wide range of flawed, fascinating characters in a dizzying array of vivid locales. It's funny, fast-paced and full of satisfyingly sudden conflict. . . . The action -- as rapid as the snappy dialogue -- will keep most readers pinned to the page." -- RT Book Reviews "Black Star Renegades is a wonderful Star Wars book that just happens to not be set in the Star Wars universe. . . . The magic of Moreci's book is in the way he takes these elements and creates a story that blasts off and doesn't let up. The backdrop is written with care and brings the reader into a universe that, despite first-glance similarities to the familiar Galaxy, stands apart and feels fresh and worthy of its creation. . . . Definitely read this." -- Stardust Pop, "Part 'Star Wars' homage, part unexpected coming-of-age novel...Moreci balances character with plot very well; the story moves at a brisk pace, and the frequent action sequences fit in well with the overall story. [A] complex, self-aware and fun romp through space. Fascinating...Thought-provoking...I was on the edge of my seat." -- Los Angeles Times "This book really, truly feels like the next big thing. It's not a shocker that combining Star Wars , Guardians of the Galaxy , Lord of the Rings , and classic pulp would result in an awesome story, but it is surprising at how Moreci is able to take all those elements and make them into something that feels fresh. If you like any of the franchises we've mentioned in this review, you'll like Black Star Renegades. If you're into kickass space operas filled with action, humor, and heart, you'll love Black Star Renegades . This is the start of something big." -- Nerdist "Moreci's debut novel is a delightful mash-up of genre tropes: a reluctant hero, swashbuckling space adventure, martial arts, an evil empire, a scrappy band of outcasts, and a sentient killer robot.

It's funny, fast-paced and full of satisfyingly sudden conflict. . . . The action -- as rapid as the snappy dialogue -- will keep most readers pinned to the page." -- RT Book Reviews "A beach read for nerds -- like Ready Player One or Andy Weir's The Martian and Artemis. It's a lighthearted, nostalgic novel that focuses on vibrant characters and adventure, built out of recognizable parts from the likes of Star Wars, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Arthurian legend. As such, it's a genuinely entertaining adventure that understands what people love about grand struggles between good and evil." -- The Verge "Engaging and inventive twists on a much-loved genre. A fun ride for space opera fans!" --John Jackson Miller, New York Times bestselling author of Star Wars: A New Dawn "Black Star Renegades is a wonderful Star Wars book that just happens to not be set in the Star Wars universe. . . .

Synopsis
In the tradition of Star Wars , a galaxy-hopping space adventure about a galactic kingdom bent on control and the young misfit who must find the power within before it's too late. SyFy Wire-- January Sci-Fi and Fantasy Books to Pick Up as soon as Possible The Verge-- 18 Science Fiction and Fantasy Books to Read in January Chicago Review of Books-- Best New Books of January Cade Sura holds the future of the galaxy in his hands: the ultimate weapon that will bring total peace. He didn't ask for it, he doesn't want it, and there's no worse choice to wield it in all of space, but if he doesn't, everyone's totally screwed. The evil Praxis kingdom is on the cusp of having every star system under its control, and if that happens, there'll be no contesting their cruel reign. Especially if its fanatical overlord, Ga Halle, manages to capture Cade and snag the all-powerful weapon for herself. Cade can't hide from Praxis, and he can't run from the destiny that's been shoved into his hands. So he only has one option: He has to fight. Cade's not going to let destiny send him on a suicide run, though. With some help from his friends--rebels and scoundrels alike--Cade's going to use this weapon to chart a new destiny for the galaxy, and for himself. He just has to do so before everyone around him discovers that he's a complete and total fraud. Blending the space operatics of Star Wars and the swagger of Guardians of the Galaxy, Black Star Renegades is a galaxy-hopping adventure that blasts its way from seedy spacer bars to sacred temples guarded by deadly creatures--all with a cast of misfit characters who have nowhere to go and nothing to lose.
