Rookies Save the World: Underdog Comeback Stories

Synopsis

A collection of 16 interconnected science fiction and fantasy short stories featuring ordinary people—underdogs, nobodies, and castaways—who find themselves at the center of extraordinary events that determine the fate of humanity, civilizations, and even the universe itself. From a man who commissions his own assassination for fame, to a prisoner who discovers he's a clone, to a village woman who claims to be a stranded alien soldier—each story explores the thin line between madness and revelation, despair and heroism, in a world where the most insignificant person may be the one who saves everything.
