The Shard That Remembers

By Rael Duma

The land remembers. The empire does not.

Kofi Asante has spent years moving dangerous cargo through dangerous systems and asking as few questions as possible. But when one shipment contains a forbidden Obsidix shard, everything changes. One touch unlocks a vision of fire, ruin, and a voice that knows the name he was never supposed to hear again.

Hunted by the Dominion and pulled toward a homeworld his people lost generations ago, Kofi is forced into a truth far older than empire. Obsidix is not just a resource. It is memory. It is inheritance. It is a living network tied to blood, land, and the buried knowledge of a scattered civilization.

To survive, Kofi must join a crew of outcasts, defectors, and keepers of forbidden history. To understand what he carries, he must return to the world the Dominion conquered and uncover what was never truly destroyed.

The Shard That Remembers is a bold Afrofuturist science fiction novel of ancestral memory, resistance, identity, and power.
