Description
Valyrieis the Freestar Collective’s most lethal slave soldier—a genetically enhanced juggernaut forced to crush rebellions for a regime that rules not through strength, but through monopolizing the last scraps of god-granted magic keeping humanity alive in space. But when the Collective orders her to huntPetra, a rogue witch with a desperate quest to cure the virus that haunts the Earth, Valyrie’s obedience cracks. Petra isn’t just a target: she’s a mother looking to save her daughter…and the first person outside of her fellow slaves who sees Valyrie as more than a weapon.
Petra offers Valyrie a way to sever Freestar’s shackles—but freedom demands a price. To destroy the Collective, Valyrie must hijack the very magic and god-touched tech Petra needs to mass-produce her cure. Meanwhile, alien armadas circle humanity’s dying colonies, opportunistic gods crown warlords as their prophets, and Freestar’s rivals plot to claim Petra’s research for their own.
And through it all, the Eventide watches and weeps. Its mournful song reverberates through space, a haunting reminder of the compassion Valyrie thought her masters had stripped from her.
Now Valyrie must choose: annihilate the Freestar Collective in a vengeful firestorm, guaranteeing humanity’s factions will battle into oblivion… or protect Petra’s cure, even if it means letting her tormentors live. But time is short. The virus takes. The aliens advance. And the Eventide’s tears may not stay silent forever.
