When thirteen-year-old Phoenix Durango’s right arm is destroyed, he’s given a giant, muscular, raven-black bionic arm to replace what he’s lost. With the newfound power to crush metal and lift thousands of pounds, Phoenix doesn’t get to enjoy being strong. He must learn to be gentle.
But how can you be gentle when the Kingsguard follow you with their laser rifles drawn? How can you be gentle when criminals from all over the galaxy are coming to Cardinal to steal your bionic arm?
Phoenix was set-up. He was never meant to be free. He was never meant to survive. With little friends and little family, Phoenix must escape, but he isn’t willing to leave without the people who care about him. He won’t bow down to eight-foot cyborgs. He won’t accept his star-crossed fate. He won’t surrender. When you’re wanted like Phoenix Durango, the outcomes are few…
You’re either going to live.
Or you’re going to die.
