Arena Blood

Five fighters are on a collision course with fate and one another in a galaxy where arena battle is the ultimate show. En route to the high-stakes Sylis Cup tournament, a stoic executioner, a charming rogue, a pragmatic scion, a rugged survivor, and a stealthy hybrid board the spacecraft Kyara. They put their deadly abilities to the test in a state-of-the-art combat simulator where simulated battles cause actual wounds, complete with hyperspace jumps and vicious opening fights. This unusual company, forged by fate and honed by rivalry, must negotiate perilous relationships and lethal arenas where only the most resilient—or fortunate—survive.
