Based on the popular novels of Mike Resnick, Myths of the Far Future features bounty hunters and gunslingers on the lawless frontiers of the Miky Way galaxy.

Bandit, murderer, known to all, seen by none... has he killed a thousand men? Has he saved a dozen worlds? His legend is as large as the Rim itself, his trail as elusive as a wisp of starlight in the empty realms of space. The reward for him is the largest in history.

From Keepsake to Altair, a group of bounty hunters must follow a trail of clues across the Inner Frontier, racing against their rivals, to be the first to track down the Outlaw King.

Worlds of the Far Future

There as as many worlds in the galaxy as there are races to occupy them. The galaxy is divided into four broad regions: The
Democracy, the Inner Frontier, the Outer Frontier, and the Core.

The Core. Outposts, uninhabitable worlds, and a giant space casino make up the Core of the galaxy. On occasion, outlaws will travel here to shake pursuit, while big-spending Democracy citizens come to find sanctuary away from the rigors of city life that don’t involve being robbed at gun point.

The Inner Frontier. As the starting point for most Bounty Hunters, the Inner Frontier has gained notoriety with all space-faring races. The planets of the Frontier are as varying as the people who inhabit them, and there’s never any lack of entertainment, depending on your tastes.

The Democracy. The race of Man founded the Democracy and has been working tirelessly to incorporate most useful planets and races into it since. With the original Earth as a starting point, humans have branched out to other inhabitable places throughout the galaxy and built several of them into conglomerate worlds from which the Democracy can run everything within its power. Eventually, the Democracy’s administrationoutgrew Earth – it was deemed too small and out of the way, and the government was moved lock, stock, and barrel halfway across the galaxy to the giant planet Deluros VIII where it has remained ever since.

The Outer Frontier. Few travel the Outer Frontier. Planets here range from tame to worse than the hardest planet on the Inner Frontier. The Angel is said to have begun his work as a bounty hunter and assassin on the Outer Frontier.
