THEY HAVE BEEN WAITING IN THE DARK FOR 50 YEARS. NOW, THEY ARE HERE.
The year is 2045. The Core Diamond Battery has solved Earth's energy crisis, propelling humanity into a new golden age of space exploration. But on the icy moon of Enceladus, the lights are about to go out.
Kael is a "Chimera"-an elite soldier integrated with Axon, a highly advanced and often cynical AI. When a routine mission on Enceladus turns into a massacre, Kael discovers he is the only thing standing between Earth and total annihilation. The enemy is the Symbiote Armada, a parasitic hive-mind that consumes entire civilizations, and they have followed the 1977 "Wow Signal" straight to our doorstep.
Buried deep within the ice, Kael finds Lyra, the last echo of the Architects-a god-like race that vanished eons ago. Lyra offers a chance for survival, but the cost is high.
Hunted by a fleet of millions and racing against time, Kael must unite a fractured team of soldiers and unlock a galactic trap hidden within the solar system itself.
Ancient mysteries, high-tech warfare, and a hero who is never truly alone.
