In mid twenty-third century, Vincent grows up on an Earth ravaged by climate change. After struggling to survive on Earth, he lands a dangerous but lucrative job that involves descending to Gravithax, a planet with three times Earth's gravity. Gravithax is subject to tectonic activity resulting in frequent volcanic eruptions accompanied by high winds. Vincent's job is to avoid getting killed while rounding up and transporting Gravithax bears to other worlds, where they dig for minerals or help with terraforming by breaking up rock with their super-strong claws. He lives on Nexus, an artificial satellite orbiting Gravithax.
Although risking his life for the job, Vincent enjoys a life of luxury until Jade Jamison, resident physicist and xenobiologist, makes a discovery that catapults him into a moral dilemma. Join Vincent as he struggles to win over a beautiful woman and do the right thing. Travel with him to exotic worlds peopled by strange, intelligent beings. Join Jade as she makes the discovery of her lifetime.
