The Orrery is a fully functioning, life-sized clockwork solar system. Several planets attached to huge metal spars, orbit a great brass sun. For many years, these worlds have fought amongst each other and many have degenerated into minor kingdoms. Worse yet, the sun has begun to wind down, and the outer worlds are starting to freeze while the rest will inevitably follow.
Wren, a young girl who lives on the outer world of Hind Leg, is tasked by her scientist grandfather to find the lost pieces of a key that can restart the sun. Setting off from her homeworld of Hind Leg, Wren is given part of the secret of the lost key that has the power to restart the sun again. Charged with travelling across the various worlds to pick up other parts of the key which was broken up after The Great War, she alone possesses the power to save the galaxy from extinction…

NEW WORLD DISORDER!
In the rotting corpse of a city called Downlode, only the most ruthless people can survive. Finnigan Sinister and Ramone Dexter have made their mark working together as ‘gun-sharks’ (hitmen) for some of the underworld’s biggest mob bosses.
Having killed Holy Moses Tanenbaum, a mobster from an alternate dimension whose presence threatened the fabric of reality, Finnigan Sinister and Ramone Dexter have reset the continuum, and now no one knows who they are, except for the hacker, Billi Octavo. Hired to protect a sentient A.I. called Lillith, the duo has discovered that another rogue A.I. is at large in the city.
