Synopsis
Three gripping stories set in the neon-drenched world of Base City.
The Gift
Every day, Police Chief Kahn faces the worst Base City has to offer—violence, corruption, and loss. His only refuge is Emiko, his wife, and the woman who reminds him there's still beauty in the world. When the Corporation offers them a second chance at a future they thought was lost, it feels like a miracle. But in a city where even hope is weaponized, no gift comes without a cost.
The Noodle Chemist
In the neon haze of Base City, Eido Naki runs a humble noodle stand by day—and a covert chemistry lab by night. To the neighborhood, he's a healer and a provider. But when a heavily augmented stranger named Ashiro Taki stumbles into his stand, Eido is pulled into a dangerous entanglement. Ashiro's mind is shattered, but his body is a masterpiece of decaying technology—a ticking time bomb.
The Postulant
In the fractured shadows of Base City, the ancient walls of an abbey provide refuge from the neon world beyond. For Vox 5, a nameless postulant raised in silence and ritual, this is the only life she has ever known. But when violence breaches the sacred halls, a doorway to another life cracks open.
Three unforgettable stories exploring the hidden corners of Base City—where danger, compassion, and survival collide in a cyberpunk world of augmented humans, corporate power, and neon-lit streets.
Base City: Short Stories is a companion collection set in the world of The Magu Program. Also available in audiobook and paperback.
