Description

Jack loves his life. Yeah, he lives at the edge of a warzone between armies of monstrosities. You call it dangerous. Jack calls it Tuesday. Folks in town aren’t too keen on a fourteen-year-old running the only bar, but Jack has it under control. Maybe his customers trash the place more than he would like, but sometimes cybernetically enhanced mercenaries need to blow off some steam. With the help of Zeke—friend, mentor, monkey—Jack serves drinks to anyone who comes through his door. And for the right price, he might even sell you something with a bit more kick … something magical.

When Corva gets knocked through the wall of his bar, Jack decides to help her out. Sure she’s being chased by a pack of bounty hunters and she’s got no idea why. But she can fight. Holy hell, she can fight. Jack could use someone like that to keep a little order in the bar. That should be a win-win, but Jack’s and Corva’s problems are bigger than either of them can guess, big enough change the course of the war.

Fulcrumis a post-Armageddon dystopian science fiction fantasy with a taste of anime. Technology, magic, and a badass monkey. The drinks aren’t on the house, but you’re welcome to stay until last call.

    What more coukd you ask for in a dystopian grimdark story with tech vibes?
    How about well written narrative that utilizes the atmosphere of the story paired with a main character who fully fills his role, a monkey sidekick, and action that is paces well enough to avoid making the reader skim?
    Great start. Can't wait to see where this goes.

    Written like a TV series- a good actiony one where the excitement never stops and every episode leaves you eager for the next one. Interestingly flawed characters, intriguing world building, excellent pacing, and a story that starts loud and just keeps getting louder. Definitely recommend- I'm really looking forward to seeing where the author takes this.
    Edit: And to the coward who's downvoting every positive review to this fic: Just write your own review, dude. If you have something to say then just say it.
