JC Connelly is a storyteller with a passion for blending high-stakes adventure with sharp, sarcastic humor. Drawing inspiration from tabletop gaming and classic swashbuckling tales, Connelly crafts worlds where the underdogs have the loudest voices and the most dangerous secrets. When not chronicling the exploits of puckish rogues and their unlikely companions, JC Connelly enjoys exploring the nuances of world-building and the mechanics of magic systems. The Tricksters Gambit is a testament to the author’s love for epic quests and the enduring power of family—both the one we are born into and the one we choose. Connelly lives and writes in a space where imagination knows no bounds, always looking for the next great story to tell.

Captain Maverick Ashcroft knows that in deep space, a gun is good, but a sword and a crazy plan are better. When the crew of the Endless Horizon discovers a derelict colony ship drifting within a lethal nebula, they aren't just looking for scrap—they’re looking for answers. Security Chief Zara Kaur is stunned to find the vessel belongs to her long-lost people, the Theraxi. A cryptic message leads the crew deeper into the cosmic fog to a hidden moon that shouldn't exist. There, they find a thriving civilization living alongside the Eclispari, spectral beings who seem too good to be true. But paradise has a price. The moon is a sentient parasite, draining the life force of the Theraxi to fuel its own immortality. Maverick isn't about to let his crew’s kin become celestial batteries. To save them, he’ll have to pull off the ultimate heist: stealing an entire population from under the nose of a living world. With the nebula closing in and the moon fighting back, the crew must jury-rig a legendary weapon for one final, impossible shot. Get ready for a sarcastic, action-packed adventure that proves being a pirate isn't just about the gold—it's about how many people you can save before everything goes boom.
