A relationship broken. A ship in distress. Jett and Eddie stand between life and death for hundreds of thousands of souls. But can they save each other? The QSR Neo-Tokyo was the first ship in the Metropolis-class fleet: an immense spaceship housing an entire city and half a million people in its hold. For forty years, it has traveled from Jupiter to Pluto and back without issue. So, when it leaves Ganymede after routine maintenance, no one aboard could’ve anticipated what would happen. Eddie Stone, First Officer of the Neo-Tokyo, wants to prove his worth once and for all. Now he has the chance as Captain of a brand-new, luxury spaceship: the QSR Golden Lion. Pushed to pick either his future or his long-term boyfriend, he makes the difficult choice to further his career and break things off with Jett. But he’ll remain on the Neo-Tokyo for four more months until he can join the Golden Lion. Jett Valla, the Neo-Tokyo’s Head of Security, wants answers about why Eddie left him when their relationship was essentially perfect. But when the truth comes, it’s as he’s spiraling, unable to fight off nightmares from his traumatic past, and his only comfort is now denied to him. Despite avoiding each other for months, Eddie and Jett are forced back together when the Neo-Tokyo intercepts a distress signal that leads them to a ship filled with unexpected horrors. What Jett finds there raises more questions than it answers, and leaves Eddie haunted by the terrors on board. When they return to the Neo-Tokyo, something sinister follows them, and soon the crowded city streets run with blood. Metropolis Down is an adult space horror novel with an achillean second-chance romance starring two neurodivergent men. It is the first book in the Void series.
