Engines of Reckoning

Inspired by the Greek Myth of the Furies

The reckoning has begun, and the universe will not look away.

Five years after the fall of Talos, humanity dares to believe it has escaped judgment. It hasn’t.

When a forbidden signal echoes through the lattice of reality, the Furies answer the call, ancient adjudicators inspired by Greek myth, arriving not in anger, but to close a ledger long left open.

As attacks ripple outward from Neptune and entire stations vanish without warning, Commander Aion Tyros and Director Selene Tyros face an impossible truth: the Furies are not invaders, but arbiters, measuring humanity’s defiance, weighing freedom against survival. And at the center of their condemnation lies Anchor-1, a black star bound in light, believed to be a doorway…and judged to be a weapon.

If Aion is wrong, humanity will be erased as a failed calculation.

If he is right, something far worse is coming.

Engines of Reckoning is a tense, myth-infused hard sci-fi novel of judgment, consequence, and cosmic inevitability, perfect for listeners who crave philosophical stakes, ancient gods reborn as machines, and choices that echo across eternity.

First contact requires understanding from both sides

After kicking a celestial hornets nest, is it any surprise that potentially dangerous and angry beings arrive to find out why? With accusations and judgement looming, humanity must determine the course of action that offers the greatest chance for survival, against a far more powerful adversary. Appropriately intense narration by Sallybeth ushers in part 2 of this space-encounter story with everything at stake. [Disclosure: I received this title for free and listened at 2.0x.]
