Age of Space [Dark Sci-Fi]
Community Rating
Description
In an age where humanity hasconquered large swaths of the galaxy, Ronin only has only one dream: To make spaceships. An unlikely encounter with an alien artifact, however, drives him into both despair and opportunity. If he wants the freedom to follow his heart, he'll have fight for it. In some cases, physically. Can he survive the disasters to come and achieve his dream or will the path he's forced upon turn into something else entirely?
Humanity might be strong, but the universe is vast, and hubris is a sin when confronted with nearly infinite possibilities.
Join Ronin as he embarks on a journey of spaceship design, battle and politicalintrigue in a world filled with larger-than-life characters, grand technological marvels and much more! Planets are mere footnotes; the galaxy is the stage!
What to expect:
Crafting. Biomodification. Weak to strong character progression with a bit of Xianxia mixed in. Battle. Terrorism. And a MC that skirts the edge. Though not a straight up villain, Ronin's certainly not a goody two shoes.

- SiletRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0I’ve been reading a lot of stories lately from this site and they are all beginning to feel same-ish to me with a “system” or reincarnation or magic. This one is a true breath of fresh air. It’s gritty and but also pacing a way that it feels episodic.
only small gripe I have with this story is how the writing is not emotional enough for me. When the mc struggles or goes through something traumatic, it feels like he doesn’t react much or he can shrug it off easily enough. Apart from that I absolutely love this story.
