Summary:
Two designers hijack a spaceship to join some space pirates-only to discover the pirates are concealing from a malevolent AI. Now they need to outwit the AI if they want to become listed on the pirate crew-and survive long enough to take pleasure from it. Adda and Iridian are recently minted engineers, but aren’t able to find any work in a solar program ruined by economic collapse after an interplanetary battle. Desperate for work, they hijack a colony ship and intend to join a famed pirate team living in luxury at Barbary about Barbary Train station Station, an abandoned shipbreaking place in deep space. However when they appear there, there is nothing as expected. The pirates aren’t living in luxury-they’re hiding inside a makeshift bottom welded onto the station’s outside hull. The artificial cleverness managing the station’s protection system has truly gone mad, trying to destroy all station residents and shooting down any ship that attempts to leave-so there’s no way to avoid it. Adda and Iridian have one chance to earn a place around the pirate team: ruin the artificial cleverness. The last engineer who went against the AI fulfilled an untimely end, and the pirates are acquiring bets on how the beginners will pass away. But Adda and Iridian intend to beat the odds. There’s a glorious potential in piracy.if only they are able to survive long plenty of.
