Mars is controlled by the Chinese, who call their
civilization the Celestial Empire. But for teenagers Gamine
and Huang, it is anything but heavenly. Gamine was taken off
the street by an aristocrat, schooled as a fine young
lady—then abandoned at her patron’s whim and forced to make
her living as a grifter. Huang’s army career is cut short by
a bandit ambush. When the two meet, Gamine —“Iron Jaw”—is
the leader of a sham religious movement, and Huang, or
“Hummingbird,” is the bandits’ chief tactician. They join
forces to bring down the corrupt government that has
determined their lives. Iron Jaw and Hummingbird
offers a planet’s worth of adventure!
