Elven prince Gud'Arr expected exile. He didn't expect to be yanked through an experimental wormhole into a human research academy in our year 2335. Thrown together with telepathic surgeon-in-training Jada Stanford, pop-culture-obsessed human Tony Fledge, young outcast Muowa, and a wildly diverse cast of android educators, dryads, and interstellar species, Gud'Arr is swept into a mystery bigger than any of them: a parasite that shouldn't think, a conspiracy rooted in Earth's oldest secrets, and a war that traces back to one betrayed man and the shadow empire he built. Academy banter collides with galactic politics and body-horror stakes as identity itself starts to unravel - because sometimes the person you think you are isn't the one the universe remembers. The Graduates blends space opera, fantasy, and mystery into one sprawling, character-driven saga.
