2120: A hostile corporate takeover leaves the asteroid miners of Journey Station stranded and starving. Desperate for supplies, they hijack a shipment bound for Mars. This first act of piracy in space demands a response from the fractious nations of Earth, themselves already teetering on the brink of war. But the Martian colony—suddenly bereft of their water shipment—is forced to thaw research ice drawn from the poles, and inadvertently wakes something ancient and alien. Caught in the maelstrom of opposing forces are the ruthless commander Bardo Arai, willing to cross any line to protect his people; space trucker-turned-bounty hunter Miriam Liberski, whose quest for justice will drive her across the solar system; and Rue Áine Torverd, an indentured sex worker who finds her courage and conscience both challenged when she embraces a new life as a pirate. A sweeping space opera that weaves together tales of survival, vengeance, and transcendence, Journey explores what it means to be human in an increasingly post-human solar system. When the heroes and villains depend on perspective...whose side are you on?
“JOURNEY is an engaging and imaginative story that sweeps the reader into a future both strange and familiar. The characters stick with you—they make mistakes, take risks, and feel real. The story has its share of thrills, but it also pauses in the right moments to show the heart and determination behind each choice. Adventure, tension, and curiosity weave together in a way that keeps readers turning pages. By the end, it’s the kind of book that lingers in your mind, long after the story is over.”
