It’s American Football cranked up to eleven and teleported seven centuries into the future. Aliens play positions based on physiology, and on-field deaths are just another statistic. It’s THE BLIND SIDE meets STAR WARS meets THE GODFATHER.
Em led her combined army of Circle Stars and Springers against the Belligerents, the force that has been killing her people and burning their crops. The Belligerents were defeated, but now Em must march her prisoners back to the new Springer city — how will the Barkah, the Springer King, react to this victory?
