The sky is shattered. The fragments remember. And now, they are waking.
Kael Veyra is a smuggler marked by betrayal and hunted by the clans he abandoned. Liora, an orphaned Echo, can hear the whispers of fractured worlds-but her gift burns her from within. Seris Thane, a High Warden of Meridian, uncovers corruption at the heart of the Council and must decide whether to uphold her oath or break it.
When fate throws them together, they discover a relic that points to the hidden core of the Belt: a Shard-Engine powerful enough to remake worlds... or break them completely.
But across the Drift, war is coming.
- Warlord Drax Korren marshals Forge-State fleets to seize the relic.
- The Obsidian Order sends assassins to silence its song.
- Riftborn clans fracture, civil war rising in their blood.
As the Shards stir, Kael, Liora, and Seris must confront their pasts and decide who they are willing to become-coward, traitor, savior, or martyr.
Perfect for fans of Dune, Star Wars, and The Expanse, The Shattered Orbits launches an epic new space opera series where broken worlds sing, and those who listen risk everything.
