About the Book

Thrust into a universe of monsters and revolutionaries, Braly must navigate a lethal power struggle while a mysterious power begins to tear his mind apart.

Book Synopsis

Jackson Braly is a cosmic virgin. On Earth, humanity is still blissfully planet-bound, but Braly's world is turned upside down when a simple act of kindness leads to an accidental teleportation across the stars. Dropped into the middle of a planetary coup against a tyrannical Queen, Braly is forced to adapt or die in a universe far larger-and more lethal-than he ever imagined.

Teaming up with a band of revolutionaries and a crew of outlaws, Braly begins a harrowing journey across the galaxy. From new worlds and civilizations to the shadows of deep space where monsters roam, he quickly learns that the cosmos is a hunting ground.

But as relentless predators close in, Braly discovers his greatest threat might be internal. A chance encounter with a glowing crystal has left him with more than just crippling pain; he is developing strange, volatile powers and hearing voices that make him wonder if he is finally going mad. Now, caught between warring empires and an unnatural awakening he can't explain, Braly must survive long enough to find his place in a galaxy where he no longer recognizes himself.
