They crossed the stars to build a new home. But by the time they arrived, humanity was already a ghost.
After the harrowing journey of the Aurora across centuries and light-years, Captain Morrow and her mismatched crew hoped to find an untouched world ripe for hope and rebuilding. Instead, they awaken to a silent planet-its cities shattered, its stations derelict, and the only survivor a centuries-old, half-human being whose memories might be as dangerous as they are vital.
Determined to understand their fate and claim a place in this impossible future, Morrow's crew must navigate the shattered legacy of a colony that grew-and fell-while they drifted in the dark. As Aurora's team repairs ancient stations and sifts through the haunted wonders and buried horrors of a lost civilization, they begin to unlock forbidden technologies and forgotten truths-the very advances that may have doomed those who came before.
But every unlocked door has its price. Their efforts rouse echoes that were better left asleep, attracting the attention of powers both human and alien, and reveal that the colony's destruction was no accident. Amidst shifting alliances and the emergence of post-human factions, new friendships and old traumas must be tested again.
Now, the Aurora's crew must decide: will they rebuild the gates that connect lost worlds, risking the notice of unknowable cosmic rivals? Or will humanity die quietly in the ruins, out of time and out of reach?
BROKEN GATES continues the sweeping saga begun in Launch Point, probing the edges of loyalty, identity, and sacrifice as humanity's last lifeboat collides with the inexorable currents of a universe that refuses to stand still. The path home has vanished-but the journey is far from over.
