About the Author

On a forgotten world, Kol has spent his life obeying rules he doesn't understand. Never go to where the sky machines fell. Never question the Elders. Never look too closely at the amber glow in the sky.

Aboard the UA Starship Elpis II, John has spent decades trying to reach a planet that refuses to get closer, watching humanity's last hope slowly slip out of reach.

Two lives. Two worlds. One collision that will change everything they thought they knew about where they came from and what is coming.

For fans of Interstellar and Arrival, a sweeping science fiction epic about knowledge, power and the dangerous truth that connects us all. 

In a world that took everything, she found the only thing that mattered.

Eight years after the fall, the creatures roam in hordes and the survivors cling to whatever warmth they can find, food, shelter, each other.

Niki is sixteen and alone, searching for a father she fears is already gone.

Ben is a man trying to rebuild a life the world keeps destroying.

And somewhere, the truth about how it all started is buried in the story of a woman who wanted to give humanity a gift it never asked for.

Some gifts cannot be taken back.

For fans of The Road and Station Eleven, a deeply human story about what we lose, what we carry, and the family we find in the wreckage. 

Ayris Phoenix was never supposed to matter. A Gray in a city built on color, she was born to harvest, obey, and die when her number hit zero.

Then Authority takes everything from her, and something in Ayris breaks.

She carries a secret written into every citizen's blood, one Authority has hidden for generations. Using it, Ayris ignites a rebellion that tears through the City of Ishtar. But bringing down a system is only half the fight. Surviving what the truth costs is the other.

A story about what freedom really costs, and who's willing to pay it.
