A brilliant engineer. A loyal friend. A universe full of puzzles.
Lieutenant Jordan LeGuin is the chief engineer of the starship Initiative—a blind orange tabby whose techno-focal goggles let him perceive the universe as data, equations, and elegant systems waiting to be understood. More comfortable with machines than most people, LeGuin thrives where careful thought, precision, and curiosity matter most.
Alongside Fact, an android arctic fox who shares his love of logic and experimentation, LeGuin tackles challenges that reveal deeper questions about trust, power, and responsibility.
From rescuing a stranded alien vessel whose crew may not be as helpless as they seem (in “Cuckoo’s Conundrum”), to grappling with strange disruptions of perception, dreams, and control (in “A Dubious Hypothesis”), LeGuin discovers that even the most rigorously analyzed systems can behave in unexpected ways.
