Stacking the Deck

Tristan is not some hero...
Or a legitimate business man.

But his naïve partner, Slap, seems determined to cast him in those roles. To complicate matters, Slap takes a contract to deliver supplies to settlers on a pioneer world, not realizing it would involve running a planetary blockade.

Galactic mobsters out for revenge...
Corrupt government agents on a deadly mission...

Their supply job runs afoul of Tristan's past, and they end up caught between several different groups of adversaries out for his blood.

Can they possibly outwit and outrun all the factions determined to destroy them?

You'll love this edge-of-your-seat space opera adventure!

L.S. King worked as a submissions editor and a copy editor on several science fiction and fantasy magazines, authored a column for new writers, and was a founding editor of the online magazine, Ray Gun Revival, now on hiatus. She does local writing workshops and currently hosts a fiction writing support group online.

Her short stories have been included in two anthologies of the best short stories and poetry from Double-Edged Publishing, and also in Inkd Publishing's Hidden Villains. Various online magazines have published her stories including Deep Magic, The Sword Review, Dragons, Knights & Angels, Digital Dragon Magazine, and Residential Aliens. The fact that several of the publications which have released her stories are now defunct has nothing to do with her. Honest.
