“For a thousand years no human has been the champion. He wants to be the first.”

An intergalactic fighting competition between champions of various worlds has traditionally been won by a species much larger and stronger than humans. Entering the contest a human finds he has to battle against not just his opponents and his self-doubts but the corrupt system. Far in the future on a distant space station the legendary Arena is where the best fighters from every planet come to vie for the championship. But for over half a century no Earthling has been good enough to be a contender. Until out of nowhere comes an underdog: the great human hope Steve Armstrong... and the best anyone's ever seen. He's been training all his life for a shot at the big time but now he's up against some mighty big muscle: a ruthless extra-terrestrial crimelord who'll pull no punches to make sure he stops Steve dead. In the mood for hard-hitting sci-fi action? Arena will knock you out!
