Summary
 With a stolen experimental
      starship and a pair of advanced synthetic limbs, Hunter isn't
      an average bounty hunter. When he accepted the job on a backwater planet, Hunter
      thought it would be easy. He and his partner just had to
      track down a missing researcher. But when they find her,
      she’s fled a quarter of the way around the massive ring
      of twenty-seven gates and Hunter realizes all is not as he
      was told. That simple realization, and Hunter’s drive for
      retribution, kick off a series of adventures leading to the
      most important discovery since the fall of the Gate
      Age—and put him in direct confrontation with the corp
      he’s been running from for the past 10 revolutions. Set in a far distant future,
      The 28th Gate is a series of tales that will appeal of fans
      who like space marines, space fleets, and military hard
      science fiction. The series consists of eight volumes spread
      across four seasons telling the story of Hunter’s
      struggles against the AAA corporation that created him. Each
      volume contains six episodic novelettes each with the action,
      character, and plotting of a complete story all crammed into
      an espresso-like package, while each season chronicles a
      different arc in the overall epic.
