Midnight War

The Solstice Festival celebrates the promise of the new dawn and held special significance for Marcus since he managed to claw his way out of poverty. However, his humble legacy haunts him in a world where social hierarchy is everything. Instead of celebrating with his own family, Marcus agrees to visit his partner’s parents on their lavish estate. He is excited to continue building his future, but it isn’t long before he’s forced to contend with their prejudice and his own imposter syndrome.

"You say you don't want to know my final resting place? Then fight with me, and they can bury our bones together." Silas Beckett, High Commander of the Pandora Fleet, can feel his time running out. Fighting terrorists has been his life's mission, but his nemesis, Hex—leader of the Vermilion Coalition—still eludes him. As his failures mount and his allies abandon him, he has few chances left to bring Hex to justice. Can Silas secure peace for his family and for the entire solar system?

Silas only narrowly escaped Mars with his life and now the Pandora Fleet hails him as king. He knows he can lead on a battlefield, but questions if he’s prepared to lead a nation. In the fragile refuge of space, his fleet lies damaged, forcing him to make a critical decision: Bow to the lords of Mercury or travel to Luna and beseech the help of cold-hearted pirates.

On Luna, Silas is crowned king of the Flamebound Kingdom, but the war is far from won. The archbishop isn’t ready to surrender, and both sides are searching for a way to gain the upper hand. Cultists worshiping the Ashen Dawn are rising from the ashes of rebellion, but no one knows where their loyalties lie. Meanwhile, Marcus must find a way to escape with the duchess and return to his allies. Then Aron and the Prometheus Group are sent to parts unknown to find Kaya and the missing Rubah.

On the Saturnalian moon of Titan, Sergeant Arabella Smith, former soldier in the Republican Guard turned revolutionary, is at a crossroad. Face to face with the shadows of her past and the promises of her future, she must make a choice: embrace her new identity, or shatter it to reclaim her birthright.
