Galactic Shadows (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798307346112)

In the distant future, humanity has expanded across the stars, building sprawling civilizations amidst the vast expanse of space. But this newfound frontier is anything but peaceful. The galaxy is fractured-an unstable powder keg of political corruption, warring factions, and unchecked crime. At the center of this chaos is the Syndicate, a shadowy organization led by a mysterious and enigmatic figure known only as The Veil. Ruthless, cunning, and relentless, The Veil seeks to reshape the galaxy with Project Ecliptica, a dark plan that could unlock the power of an ancient alien rift and forever tip the balance of power.

Enter Kael Soren, a hardened former detective turned renegade who has dedicated his life to stopping The Veil and dismantling the Syndicate. Haunted by the loss of his homeworld and driven by the weight of justice, Kael is no stranger to danger. Alongside his small but resourceful crew-Tovak, a brilliant hacker with a mysterious past, and Dax, a wisecracking pilot with a penchant for chaos-Kael uncovers the terrifying scope of The Veil's plan: a massive ring known as the Nexus that could stabilize the rift and unleash an otherworldly force upon the galaxy.
