What if the key to saving the world was hidden in your mother’s disappearance? Twelve years after his famous mother vanished, Zahn stumbles upon an alien artifact that will change his life forever. When a figure in a shimmering uniform appears outside his window, Zahn learns his discovery is no mere artifact — it’s tied to a galactic war against the Vakragha, an ancient species that devours entire stars. Their only weakness is the Tulari, a mythical stone lost for eons, that can heal the wounds they cut into space. Zahn finds himself at the heart of a mystery reaching back to his mother’s fate. Joined by Asha, a sharp-witted technician with secrets of her own, he realizes everything is connected, and the Vakragha are growing a wormhole near his world. Full of heart-pounding action, interstellar intrigue, and jaw-dropping twists, this award-nominated adventure is perfect for fans of Star Wars , Ender’s Game , and today’s YA space epics. A self-contained adventure, and the beginning of a complete trilogy, ready to binge now. What Top Reviewers Say… “This is a great story…Definitely an amazing adventure for all…The descriptive scenes captivate the imagination and one truly feels a part of the story.” --AudiobookReviewer.com “It was tough to look away. What's really interesting about this book is how multi-layered it is… Zahn's story manages to pull from the world around us, while also incorporating elements of mythology and hero epics. This is a coming of age story of the highest caliber.” --Jessica Nottingham (Creator of HopelessBibliophile.com) “A swift & compelling read. It's fun and I recommend it if you enjoy science fiction epics.” --Michael Coorlim (Galvanic Century series author) “I was immediately drawn in by the vivid descriptions at the beginning of the story. The author has a knack for fully immersing a reader into the hero's plight, and I felt like I was hurtling through corridors of light alongside Zahn.” --Erica Lane (Creator of FantasyBookLane.com) “Quite difficult to put down; I found myself up until 2 AM a couple of nights.” --Retired Techie, Reviewer “The bad guys were nasty and believable, Zahn ‘manned up’ and he could be me and I could be him, and the story moved. The ending? Yep, its in for a second book.” --J. Thomas Beaton, Author of Duality Inc. "Definitely an amazing adventure for all. The descriptive scenes captivate the imagination and one truly feels a part of the story. 5-stars! " --AudiobookReviewer.com " A swift & compelling read. It's fun and I recommend it if you enjoy science fiction epics." --Michael Coorlim, Author of the classic steampunk series Galvanic Century "Readers of the Law of One books may find familiar the philosophical thread woven throughout. In my view, that makes this book a rare gem in the genre . I'm not exaggerating when I say that the underlying philosophy of the book, the mythos, shares much in common with the best of metaphysical literature. 5-stars." --Thomas Minderle, Author of Fringe Knowledge for Beginners "It was tough to look away.

Card, and Lucas created. You love action in your Sci-Fi, but you want meaning and humor, too. You want the characters to actually care about each other and act with their hearts as well as their heads. You want a story where the hero isn't a "chosen one" but instead chooses themselves, just like real life. I want that, too, which is why I wrote this series. As I said, this book is for you, and I hope you love it.
