Phoenix Rising: Ascension

In the electrifying sequel to Phoenix Rising, the crew of the battered starship Phoenix fights for survival in a galaxy ravaged by war.

Haunted by visions from an ancient chalice, Vaskan refugee Ellyara sees a white stone temple pulsing with unearthly power, its cryptic symbol whispering betrayal and doom. A malevolent psychic force threatens her sanity, risking the fragile human resistance. Meanwhile, Chief Engineer Ariel Daniels, scarred by her father's death, races to repair the Phoenix's failing systems, scavenging worlds overrun by the Assad Empire's bioengineered war machine.

Captain Anders leads steadfast Bishop, daring pilot Miles, and tech-wizard Joanna through nebula-shrouded ruins and derelict dreadnaughts hiding grotesque secrets. A desperate salvage mission becomes a breakneck chase through canyons and void-torn space as the Assad close in. In Ascension, loyalties fracture, and visions blur with reality. Will Ellyara's revelations save them?or deliver them to the empire's merciless claws? Perfect for fans of Firefly, The Expanse, and Battlestar Galactica.
