Deep in the Far Outworlds, a derelict space station holds the bones of a long-dead people—and a beautiful young woman locked in cryofreeze. When the star-wandering brothers Isaac and Aaron Deltana find the sleeping girl, they soon realize that they are her only hope for rescue. If they don’t take her, then slavers certainly will.

With no way to revive her, they set a course for the New Pleiades in hopes of finding someone who can help. But a storm is brewing over that region of space. After a series of brutal civil wars, the Gaian Empire has turned its sights outward. A frontier war is on the verge of breaking out, and the brothers are about to be caught in the middle of it.

They both harbor a secret, though. Somewhere else in the Outworlds is another derelict station—one that they used to call home. That secret will either bind them together or draw them apart.

But a heist to recover a mysterious artifact reveals the existence of the deadly Nightkind, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. With the danger rising, Glynt must use his wits and magical abilities to uncover the Nightkind’s secrets and save the city from their eternal darkness.

But then she’s told that her haunting dreams are memories of past lives, and if she undergoes a ceremony, she will finally understand the truth about herself. She’ll finally find peace.
What she doesn’t realize is that there’s more at stake than an escape from endless nights of Netflix binge-watching.

If Mattie is to survive and restore balance to the world, she must accept the powers buried within her. Yet to do so, she’ll have to confront an ancient secret, which could either bring her ultimate wisdom or complete madness.

In a world with no ground, only flight keeps you alive.

Toume d’Nezuhmy only wanted to be a pilot, just like his mother. As the son of a chieftain, his clan had trained him to fly well, then sent him to bury his head in books. He would have stayed in them, if not for the high priestess of the Drahken clan. She offers him a curious mission. There is no pay, but if he is successful, the high priestess will grant him her daughter’s hand in marriage. This delivery is not as simple as it seems, however. Rival clans will kill him for the package, and even if he is successful, marriage is no guarantee of happiness. A serious choice lies before Toume. Should he choose wrong, he could wind up dead, or worse—a failed union between him and the Drahken heir would destroy the only alliance that protects his clan from destruction.
