Equinox: Beginnings

By Yusuf R. Shaik

A prodigy. A prison ship. A destiny rewritten among the stars.

Jason King was once Earth's brightest young mind, until he defied the United Earth Government and paid the price. Sentenced to life aboard the Equinox, a decommissioned mining ship turned orbiting prison, Jason awakens paralyzed inside his cryogenic pod.
Alone. Forgotten, but aware.

But Jason is no ordinary prisoner.

Armed with a brilliant mind and mysterious new abilities, he escapes confinement and discovers the Equinox still holds power, and purpose. Assembling a crew from its frozen inmates, Jason dares to attempt the impossible: build humanity's first faster-than-light engine and escape the UEG's control.

His course is set for Alpha Centauri, in search of a new home.
What he finds will change everything.

Equinox: Beginnings launches a bold sci-fi space opera-an epic tale of rebellion, discovery, and the will to reclaim freedom. Perfect for fans of The Expanse, Mass Effect, and Isaac Asimov.

NOTE: This 2025 edition of Equinox: Beginnings has been fully revised and professionally re-released with improved structure, pacing, and emotional depth. Older reviews may refer to the original version published many years ago.
