Book 1: Messenger
Urey orbits an unstable blue star, and its seeded human inhabitants are doomed. The planet was written off and forgotten until Sephy Alcott, the most powerful CEO in the galaxy, hid a retro colony on its surface with a secret mission to cure the genetic damage of their species.
AI controls the inhabitants of Urey with technology so advanced it seems like magic. But the systems have fallen into disrepair and allowed the humans to evolve unchecked. It didn’t take them long to divide into nations and go to war. The Galathian Empire has conquered the kingdom of Calonade and they’re hungry for more.
Jay, a castle servant, has been a target of scorn his whole life. He joins the academy for a chance to ride out of Calonade. Instead, he’s sent to protect the rebel queen’s heir and discovers the shocking truth of his past along with the key to winning the war.
Jortica, a fisherman’s daughter, would rather serve in the Frontier than face the treacherous sea. A storm killed her mother, blinded her father, and put a scar on her face. It still blows through her mind. To outrun it, she must outfight everyone in her way.
To protect her investment, Sephy travels to Urey to ensure the retro colony’s success. She finds her experiment in grave danger and sets in motion the conflict that consumes them all.
The saga begins when a clockwork crow steals the most precious possession of a mad cyber-automaton.
