The Effect

By A.R. HELIX

THE EVENT HORIZON WAS ONLY THE BEGINNING.

Commander Eva Rostova and the crew of the salvage vessel Odyssey are used to living on the edge. But when a routine mission to the "Graveyard of Light" goes wrong, they aren't just fighting for their lives-they are fighting against time itself.

Caught in the crushing grip of a supermassive black hole, the Odyssey is flung thousands of years into the future. They awaken to a galaxy transformed-a utopia ruled by the benevolent Galactic Concord. But beneath the gleaming surface of this advanced civilization lies a terrifying truth.

The Concord didn't just survive the chaos of history; they engineered it.

Now, regarded as primitive relics and dangerous anomalies, Rostova and her crew discover they are being studied, cataloged, and manipulated. With the help of a rogue archivist and the brilliant but disillusioned Dr. Aris Thorne, they uncover a conspiracy that spans millennia. The Concord is rewriting the past to control the future, and the Odyssey crew is the only loose thread left to cut.

Hunted by Temporal Enforcers and armed only with the truth, the crew of the Odyssey must ignite a rebellion to reclaim their history-before they are erased from it completely.

TIME IS NO LONGER A RIVER. IT IS A WEAPON.
