Spicy McHaggis Picks (Tobyverse)
Pitch
The book is Jade Empire meets Warhammer 40k, a space Beijing opera with a hefty dosing of western. An old soldier is disgraced after leading his squad into an ambush during a plantetary revolt. Now he travels the systems, searching for something to claim as his legacy so he can pass in peace but of course this being a western/kung-fu influence book he just won't be left alone.
So you've got a human interstellar empire led by the descendants of the Indo-Chinese, alien republics, splinter human groups, terrifying entities from beyond our dimension awoken by the new power source fueling everything that actually sucks energy from this alternate dimension.
What this book is really about is I had the idea that there are people in jade Terminator armor who do kung fu against Galactus.
