Descender is the title of a new and original science fiction drama in the form of a graphic novel. This first book tells the story of TIM-21, a child-like android who wakes up in a mining colony on the planet Dirishu 6. TIM-21 and his companions struggle to stay alive in a universe where all androids have been outlawed and bounty hunters lurk on every planet. Lemire pits humanity against machine, and world against world, to create a sprawling epic. Descender es el título de una nueva y original saga de ciencia ficción dirigida a los jóvenes que toma la forma de una novela gráfica. Los autores, Jeff Lemire y Dustin Nguyen, han conseguido darle un nuevo giro a las constantes de este género, sin renunciar a algunos de los temas centrales de la narrativa fantacientífica. El primer libro de la serie se llama Estrellas de hojalata y narra la historia de Tim, un androide con aspecto de niño que despierta en una colonia minera situada en el planeta Dirishu 6. Tim ha permanecido una década desconectado y cuando vuelve a activarse se encuentra con que todos los habitantes del lugar han muerto tiempo atrás. Qué ocurrió mientras él "dormía"? Por qué no hay nadie? Sus indagaciones lo llevan a descubrir que una terrible masacre ha diezmado a los seres humanos.
