We Happy Few

We Happy Few is a weekly sci-fi romance serial featuring an eclectic cast of characters both alien and human. Follow Captain Jez Shaw and his crew as they discover an apocalyptic threat to the Galactic Union and do what they must to save it. Each story arc will be organized into a separate book; start with Book #1, Human After All, and read sequentially to get the most out of the story.

Trigger warnings will be posted at the beginning of each chapter, but will generally include blood, violence, death, cursing, and explicit sex. This list will be updated as the story progresses.
