Ancient Space

Captain Elya Nevers and the Furies face a different kind of danger back home as they bid farewell to fallen comrades, wade into the murky realm of Solaran politics, and hunt for knowledge about the Telos relics—while being hunted themselves. Overmind X is still at large. She’s hungry to get her talons on the next artifact of alien power. Will she find it before the Solarans get their own house in order? And what terrifying existential threat to the galaxy does she become if they’re too late?

As they seek the final pieces of a powerful alien technology, the Solaran Fleet and their xeno nemesis vie for control of the galaxy. If these relics fall into the wrong hands, Overmind X and her rogue swarm will have the advantage in the most deadly space battle the Fleet has ever fought. But a surprise visit from a wealthy and enigmatic patron complicates the admiral’s plans, revealing new mysteries about the ancient technology’s true purpose.

In school, you probably were told that Cro-Magnon Man appeared about 35 thousand years ago and after 25 thousand years humanity finally got to the Stone Age. We stayed there for another 7 thousand years to get to something called the primitive Bronze Age and then in the past 5 thousand years almost every bit of civilized development occurred. Your teachers told you it happened so you didn’t even question it. Unfortunately, most of that was a lie. Researchers, anthropologists, archeologists, historians, scientists, teachers, and even clergy all knew it or should have known. OK! Some were ...
