Science Fiction
Mars is supposed to be dead… a fact Lt. Shaila Jain of the Joint Space Command is
beginning to doubt in a bad way. Freak quakes are rumbling over the long-dormant tectonic
plates of the planet, disrupting its trillion-dollar mining
operations and driving scientists past the edges of theory
and reason. However, when rocks shake off their ancient dust
and begin to roll—seemingly of their own volition—carving
canals as they converge to form a towering structure amid
the ruddy terrain, Lt. Jain and her JSC team realize that
their realize that their routine geological survey of a
Martian cave system is anything but. The only clues they
have stem from the emissions of a mysterious blue radiation,
and a 300-year-old journal that is writing itself. Lt. Thomas Weatherby of His Majesty’s Royal Navy is an
honest 18th-century man of modest beginnings, doing his part
for King and Country aboard the HMS Daedalus, a frigate
sailing the high seas between continents…and the immense
Void between the Known Worlds. Across the Solar System and
among its colonies—rife with plunder and alien slave
trade—through dire battles fraught with strange alchemy,
nothing much can shake his resolve. But events are
transpiring to change all that. With the aid of his fierce captain, a drug-addled alchemist,
and a servant girl with a remarkable past, Weatherby must
track a great and powerful mystic, who has embarked upon a
sinister quest to upset the balance of the planets—the
consequences of which may reach far beyond the Solar System,
threatening the very fabric of space itself. Set sail among the stars with this uncanny tale, where
adventure awaits, and dimensions collide!
