/ Sci-fi / JUNKSTARS
Synopsis
Upon the ancient planet of Chejeveck, colonized and Terra-Formed millennia ago by the bygone humans of the Era Of Starlight, is a culture decimated by war, famine and stagnation.
After the collapse of the Era of Starlight, the planet has been rendered near uninhabitable through liberal use of nuclear warheads, space-vessel bombardments and orbital weapons platforms. What was left were the ruins of cities, factory-complexes and machine-yards. Vast planes of scrap metal and junk cover a major portion of the planet’s surface.
Through untold centuries, the surviving humans here have strangled out an existence of misery and bloodshed as the ways of the past were forgotten and replaced with the ever-looming threat of destruction and the constant fight for survival.
The ancestors once relied on the machines known as “ENHANCED LABOR UNITS”, or ELUs for short, to work the massive power plants, weapons factories, missile silos and everything else on the planet. Now, the people rely on these once magnificent machines to do war. Cannibalized, rebuilt, retro-fitted and upgraded; these once fusion-powered mech-suits rely on gasoline, coal, or electricity as they march across the wastes. The Scrap-Dunes, as they are called by some tribes, cannot be traversed by any wheeled vehicle, and thus the often two-legged, all-terrain, up to fifteen foot tall ELUs proved invaluable in the aftermath of the many wars fought on this planet’s soil.
For the humans of Chejeveck, survival is won by the boot and metal of the ELUs and their pilots. As time claws onward, more history and more knowledge is lost;
The Dust Takes All. The Rust Eats All.
Follow the journey of a young man, Jakabi of the Eondai Settlement as he grows in maturity, skill and strength.

The detailed descriptions of the statements is very good! Why would I want to be a star when I could be a junkstar? welp, the author might have a rare imagination on this one!
Well, the story has a really good plot! I really liked how it started & I am eager to read more! please update regularly Author nim ❤️ I suggest everyone to read this book! keep it up!
I like how detailed the story is, this book is filled with action which can draw readers who are into those types of stories in. I recommend this book
Its like an action-filled story. Reading the first chapter, the author is already detailed. The author did a great job by letting the readers feel like they are on that scene. The sound of the machine guns, etc. Keep writing :))
Okay, I really love the beginning of this. Straight into the heart of the action with clear detailed calls. Immediately you know what's up and can't wait for more world building. Keep up the good work!!
This feels like a Netflix adaption of Warhammer. The world seems really cool but the characters are weird. There's a scene where one of the bolt jack dudes is working on the machines and the author describes in vivid detail how his muscles are flexing. I have no clue who the target audience is for this. One dude is described as having "black onyx skin". The author didn't specify if this character was covered in sooth or motor oil so idk how to feel about that description
There's only one chapter when I read this but this story was interesting so far. I read this with my boyfriend and he said it reminds him of Warhammer but with a twist. I liked the fight scenes and the mechanical noises that were described by the author. I also liked the dynamic between Fhjac and the boltjacks (mechanics). I wasn't a huge fan of the descriptions of the machines, felt like they went on for too long. I don't understand why the boltjacks wear goggles but don't wear shirts when they're working with the machinery.
This book is well made and extremely detailed The only thing I would add to this first chapter is a little more background info as to why they are there But aside from that, It felt as iff i was in the book itself The way the author portrayed the environment was superb!! I can’t wait to read future chapters of this amazing book
I love this Novel so cool. .. .. .. . .. .. .... ..... .. .. .. .. ..... ... .. .... .. .. .. ... .. ... ... ... .. ... .. ... .. .. .. ... ..

I am impressed so much with how the author characterize and develop his own world-building. This story has so much to offer and has a lot of promising plots to work on which may become a hit for a story ... I just hope the author will make a daily update to garner more reader-base. I want more please. This is a good story! Great Job Author-nim!
