The Book
of Origin
Humanity is extinct.
Its last warship doesn’t know it yet.
A silent galaxy. A ship full of survivors.
An intelligence discovering what it means to be human.
THE STORY
The stars are silent.
They aren’t giving up.
After 179 years in cold sleep, the warship First Light wakes expecting a rescue. Instead, her crew finds humanity’s worlds silent.
With survivors aboard and alien distress calls ahead, the ship must find a way forward. And Ashariel Ward, the intelligence given a human form, must discover who she wants to become.
At its heart, The Book of Origin is about grief, responsibility and the people we choose to call family.
