The crew of the Ahazi Phase found a ghost ship. Now the ghosts have found them.
When Captain Eva Rostova and her crew rendezvous with the derelict warship Fengkuangi Ziluolian, they expect a salvage mission. What they find is far more terrifying. The ship is pristine, eerily preserved, and completely devoid of bodies. But in its depths, the exploration team discovers something else: unsettling alien carvings that subtly shift and pulsate, and fragmented logs hinting at a catastrophic event called "the Unmaking."
The logs warn that the Unmaking "begins within... the flesh... geometry... a pathway."
They make a hasty retreat, but the insidious influence of the derelict ship follows them home. Aboard the Ahazi Phase, the crew begins to unravel, plagued by vivid nightmares, obsessive behavior, and the chilling sensation that their own ship is turning against them.
As Captain Rostova watches her crew descend into madness, she begins to feel her own grip on reality slipping. She sees grotesque alien visages on the faces of her loyal crew and hears alien whispers in the groaning metal of the ship.
Paranoia takes hold. Isolation becomes a necessity. And with every passing moment, the voices grow louder.
They're on their way to the Kepler-186 colony. The voices are getting louder. And Eva Rostova can no longer tell if the enemy is outside the ship... or locked within her own mind.
In the terrifying tradition of The Expanse and Event Horizon, The Ahazi Phase is a mind-bending cosmic horror that will make you question the line between sanity and survival.
