Publisher's Summary

Inspired by Alita: Battle Angel, Harry Potter's Quidditch game, and the Tainos of the Caribbean.

Human life has a second chance to live after Earth's destruction. Only a few made it to the spaceship. Nico, a young man with nothing to lose, chose to reset his life and join space migrants. Desperate to have an Earth-like life in this need-based environment, humans took their yearning and this new technology to get themselves into an entertainment renaissance. That’s how Batey became the sport of the new times.

This futuristic take on the ancient Taino game gave Nico the chance to make new friends, to have the family he deserved, and even reunite with who he never thought to see again. In his way to trying to make a name for himself in this sport, adversity knocks on his door. But heart and willpower are not enough to combat enhanced cyborgs and genetically modified humans.

What does it take for Nico and his friends to win the match?

Does he stand a chance to create his newfound dreams into reality? Or will he crumble at the hands of his nemesis, Fred.RTG?
