Get back up again,
Even if it's from the dead.
The Apara have guided humanity through centuries of conflict and catastrophe-but their greatest challenge may be just beginning.
After a devastating terrorist attack leaves the Asheville center in ruins, Marc Girard is missing-presumed dead or taken by a shadowy military faction known as the Naqam. With time running out, Tess Waterford is done waiting. Determined to bring him home, she throws herself into combat training, pushing her abilities beyond their limits.
But as a dangerous new power awakens within her, Tess must confront a terrifying possibility: could the very thing that makes her stronger also destroy everyone she loves?
Meanwhile, Phoenix Johnsen-a survivor of the Roulette Virus and a Lost Mission candidate-crosses paths with Peder, Liz's brother. Her condition makes her the perfect infiltrator, giving the Apara their first real chance to strike back against the Naqam.
As Inspiration Inc. rises from the ashes and new enemies emerge, exposure has never been more dangerous.
Can the Apara rise stronger than before... or will the flames consume them?
Phoenix Rising is a gripping continuation of The Apara Chronicles-a science-fantasy saga of immortality, trauma, resilience, and the struggle to remain psychologically human in the face of unimaginable loss.
