FULL Blurb

Mark Mylan was seventeen when the Empire forcibly dragged him off-world and forced him to join their army. After escaping, he becomes a wanted fugitive with the Numen — an ancient power wielded by warriors the Empire has been hunting to extinction. Mark finds Tom, one of the last surviving Sentari, who trains him to control the Numen. Together with Jane and Jack, his childhood friends, and Aloyla, a princess on the run, they form a rebel crew fighting impossible odds. Their mission is to strike back at the Empire. But that means surviving space battles, fighting imperial fleets, infiltrating enemy bases, finding lost Sentari temples, and facing the Lord of the Vakryn — the Empire’s emperor. From palaces to space battles, from snowy mountains to betrayals, Mark’s fearless crew races across the galaxy. Some won’t survive. Some will fall in love. Some will be betrayed. A space opera packed with glowing swords, different worlds, epic quests, and a war that’s been raging for dozens of years.

READ THE FIRST CHAPTER

Introduction The galaxy hasn’t been the same since the Empire rose twenty-two years ago. The Sentari—once defenders of balance and scientists studying and wielding a magical force—were almost wiped out. Most were hunted down and executed; the few left live in hiding. Just a year before, the galaxy thrived under a council of worlds and democratic cooperation. It was a time of peace and stability. Then the Vakryn arrived. The Vakryn were ancient beings who existed for thousands of years—they were the complete evil opposites of the Sentari. The conflict that followed, called the Great Empire War, lasted a single devastating year. When it ended, the Empire had risen, and the old order was shattered. The Sentari were declared traitors and their temples were burned and all their knowledge lost. Entire populations were enslaved. Since then, the Empire has swallowed nearby multiple star systems, spreading like a shadow across the stars. Now it threatens to consume the entire Milky Way. But this story isn’t about the rise of empires. It’s about one person. The only one who can truly tell what happened next.
