The Lyra Expanse is changing.
What began as a fragile frontier is quickly becoming the center of a much larger conflict.
Scott Brennan and the crew of the Aurora were sent to scout worlds, protect struggling colonies, and continue the work of the legendary Astral Venture. But every new mission reveals unsettling truths about the region humanity hoped would become its new home.
Alien powers are growing bolder. Political tensions among the colonies threaten to erupt into open war. And across the Expanse, mysterious signals and ancient structures hint at a forgotten history stretching far beyond human exploration.
The deeper Scott digs, the clearer the pattern becomes.
The Expanse was shaped by civilizations that existed long before humanity arrived-and whatever they left behind may be far more dangerous than anyone imagined.
As new enemies rise and old secrets awaken, the Vanguard team must decide how far they are willing to go to protect the fragile future of humanity.
Because some discoveries can change the fate of an entire civilization.
Awakening the Expanse continues The Lyra Expanse Saga, a sweeping space opera filled with alien civilizations, deep-space exploration, political intrigue, and galaxy-spanning mysteries.
Perfect for readers who enjoy:
- epic space opera
- first contact science fiction
- interstellar exploration
- alien civilizations and ancient technology
