Starlit Dust: An Ancient Intelligence. A Buried Truth. A War Rekindled. (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798319077462)

In a galaxy scarred by war and betrayal, Starlit Dust tells the story of Lira, a fierce leader who must grapple with a shattered past and the uncertainty of an even darker future. The rebellion has scored a hard-fought victory, but the destruction of Cyrin and the mysteries surrounding an ancient AI called Aedrix are far from over.
As Lira decodes the secrets of Aedrix's drive, she unravels a chilling truth: the star-engine that destroyed Cyrin may be rebuilt-or more terrifyingly, remade into something far worse. With the rebellion standing on the edge of both triumph and destruction, Lira must face her own doubts and the haunting memory of Kael, the man who sacrificed everything for their cause.
But death may not have claimed him after all.
As Lira ventures to the ruins of Cyrin to investigate a signal, she uncovers a terrifying truth-a monstrous force is awakening beneath the ashes of a broken world. The creature, a grotesque fusion of flesh and machine, bears the eerie likeness of Kael, and its purpose is still unknown. What is left of him? What has survived the fall of the star-engine?
In the final, explosive chapters, loyalties will be tested, and the line between friend and foe will blur. Lira must make a choice-one that could either save the galaxy or doom it forever.
