: Tales From The Starport Lounge

Seventeen incredible authors. Seventeen
amazing stories. One fantastic sci-fi universe, where the only limit is one’s
imagination. Welcome to Starflight.
Based on the exploration-based Starflight video game series created by Greg
Johnson and the Binary Systems team, the stories in Tales From the Starport
Lounge flesh out and shine a light into the darkest corners of the known
universe. Join the last vestiges of Humanity and their alien allies (the
reptilian Thrynn, the insectoid Velox, and the plant-based Elowan) as they
attempt to carve out their own territory in a sector of space filled with
wondrous opportunity and deadly threats. Brave explorers seek out new worlds to
colonize while merchants cruise from starport to starport, their holds laden
with exotic goods.
Not all in this futuristic setting have noble intent. For every prospector and
trader attempting to make a difference, a dozen pirates, smugglers, and
mobsters engage in all manner of criminal enterprise. Gangs fill the
underbellies of every major city and raid the trade routes between the stars,
pushing the outnumbered and outgunned Interstel Police to their limit and
forcing civilians to take matters into their own hands. It’s a rough and tumble
universe, where one wrong move could spell doom for an expedition, or grant
enough wealth to buy a planet.
Board your ship and set course for stars unknown! The universe awaits.
