IN THE WIND

In The Wind
By Devin K. Asante

The world didn’t end with a bang. It ended in silence.

After World War III reduced nations to ash and the climate turned against its creators, Earth became a dying planet clinging to the last threads of civilization. Just when humanity believed it had seen the worst, a signal arrived—from deep space.

No voice. No explanation. Just a countdown.

Now, with twenty sunrises left until contact, the newly formed Federation of Nations must confront not only an approaching alien force, but the weight of its own secrets: a buried spacecraft, a long-dead visitor, and a century-old cover-up. At the center of it all stands General Ji Min, tasked with leading a fractured world into the unknown.

As old powers clash and survival plans ignite behind closed doors, one truth becomes clear—whatever is coming is beyond human comprehension.

And it’s already on its way.

In The Wind is a haunting, high-stakes sci-fi thriller that explores first contact through the lens of planetary trauma, political intrigue, and a fragile hope for redemption. Perfect for fans of The Three-Body Problem, Arrival, and Battlestar Galactica.
