BE PREPARED, BECAUSE YOU JUST NEVER KNOW... Forced to join a gang to gain the attention of parents who could care less, 15-year-old Brava Hernandez fended for herself in the heart of East Los Angeles, 2219. Drugs, robberies, gang violence ... nothing much had changed over the past two centuries. Her only escape was to watch the Sci & Psych Channel, which transported her imagination to galaxies far away. She learned yoga to control her inner pain, exercise to defend herself on the streets, and social interaction from the show hosts. The only person who ever helped her was her school counselor, who introduced Brava to Captain Wirkkala of the exploratory space ship Justice. He hired her as his assistant and she set off on a real space adventure! Come aboard as Brava learns the ins and outs of her ship, the Oikeudenmukaisuus, the Finnish word for Justice, and meets new friends. However, facing a mutiny, a maniacal scientist, and hostile aliens, Brava's strength and determination will be tested... and that's only the beginning!

"We riot our way in!" Captured by a rogue crew on a desert planet called Voxa, Brava Hernandez became a pawn in a political struggle for power. Her only hope was to take one of their spaceships and head as far away from that planet as possible. So, she played along. Waking up in a metal tent, a man tried to attack her. But, much to his surprise, she broke his nose and had to be taken off him before she could do more damage. The leader of the crew, Drostan left him in the desert to die, punishment for attacking an Exile. Drostan's crew headed towards the Dead Lion Dragon's Solstice where Exiles were transported through space to a black dwarf to die as a sacrifice for the glory of the Fallen. But, Drostan had other plans for Brava. Battling chimeric, time-forgotten creatures, enemies appearing out of nowhere, and the Mutares finding her again, Brava's determination meets a great challenge. Will the help of new friends be enough to help her as she faces new spatial environments, a mysterious island, and deception from even the unlikeliest of people?
