Publisher's summary

A mighty empire…a lowly slave…a galaxy to save. Will a hero rise?

Nova chronicles the early years of the Aurora Galaxy after the great war between two immortal races known as the Malakians and the Torians. The despot, Zari Treville, is leading the Torians on a campaign to rule the galaxy, but Supreme Chancellor Ell Yon, leader of the Malakians, stands in his way. Both races wield technology far beyond anything the human race has ever seen.

Young Daeson Starlore is born of royal blood on the planet of Jypton where the Rayleans (the Drudge class) serve the ruling classes of Jyptonians (the Colloquial and the Elite classes). As a young man, Daeson is living his dream piloting his Starcraft at the academy and is on track to graduate at the top of his class.

A chance encounter with a lowly Starcraft mechanic changes everything and the life and world Daeson once thought he knew changes forever. Desperate for the truth, Daeson embarks on a galactic journey that will either kill him or thrust him into a life of terrifying adventure.

Time is short; will he survive, or will he rise?

Exactly what is required ;)

When I step out of my comfort zone I always like to find myself in the vast depth of the unknown. I can count on Chuck black to deliver and will always be ready to spool up the StarCraft searching for more!

Riveting!

Chuck Black has done it again! He has created a story that is riveting, yet clean for the whole family. It is a very creative story as an allegory to the greatest story ever told. I highly recommend it.

Another awesome story from Chuck Black!

This was a great beginning to a new series. I found myself not wanting to stop listening as I went through the plot twists and the emotional rollercoaster of Daeson and Raviel. Looking forward to starting the next one already.
