The Last Starfighter of Sector 7

Kids’ Stories Book

By: Ayokunle Mathew Akinbi

Narrated by: Kirk Sugars

In the quiet dust of a forgotten hangar, twelve-year-old Leo’s world is confined to the silent cockpit of the Star Sabre, the last legendary starfighter of a bygone era. His lonely life of dreams and echoes is shattered when the ship’s dormant comms crackle to life with a mysterious signal from across the galaxy. Answering the ghostly call, Leo is launched into a desperate adventure through treacherous asteroid fields and whispering nebulas. To survive, he must rely on a grumpy, grizzled mechanic and a fearless, comet-surfing smuggler. Together, they uncover a secret about the Star Sabre's true power and a promise made by its first pilot. But their journey puts them on a collision course with the tyrannical Void empire, a shadowy force led by a ruthless commander with a shocking connection to Leo's own past. Now, the boy who once only polished a forgotten relic must become the hero the galaxy needs. He may be the last Starfighter, but he is Sector 7’s only hope.
