Gambit of Our Forefathers

By Ryan Pearcy

If the gods love us unconditionally, why do they play games with our lives?

Devira Levin never considered herself special until the day Trition burst into her life. Unlocking technology that mimics magic, and what the mysterious orbs are for, becomes her crusade.

Billions of years before, Bashefer, a brilliant yet reticent Juaaree, prepares for his Day of Development. A key transition into adulthood and the basis of his entire society's mastery of galactic expansion, the awakening that awaits him will have profound consequences forevermore.

Somewhere in between these two reluctant heroes, a man named Ezekiel sees wheels within wheels spinning like diamonds in the sun. Unlocking the role each plays in what seems like some grand game will drive revelations that transcend time, space, and what we call existence itself.

A mind-bending, cosmos-spanning epic of hard science fiction and philosophical thought, Gambit of Our Forefathers is a stunning debut. Perfect for fans of The Three-Body Problem, Dune, and Project Hail Mary.
