Starborn Alive

An ancient alien artifact. Two sisters. A desperate journey for survival in a galaxy on the brink.In 2249, Earth is dying. Environmental collapse and political fragmentation have scattered humanity across fragile orbital cities and distant colonies, held together by uneasy truces. When an alien artifact is discovered on asteroid 16 Psyche, it triggers betrayal, unrest, and a ruthless scramble for power.Nova Clearwater is forced to flee the solar system, carrying knowledge powerful forces will kill to suppress. Pursued and isolated, she follows the trail of a long-lost alien civilization, uncovering dangerous secrets about the artifact’s true purpose. Meanwhile, her sister Amalie remains on Earth, caught in the crossfire of rising powers, her fate hanging in the balance.Set among sleek starships, decaying space stations, and haunting alien ruins, Starborn Alive blends sweeping space opera with deeply human, character-driven drama — exploring identity, legacy, ambition, and the cost of survival in a universe where truth and loyalty rarely align.As the Clearwater sisters are forced onto diverging paths — one fleeing into the depths of space, the other fighting to save what remains of Earth — they must face impossible choices that will shape not only humanity’s future, but who they become.“Fast-paced, emotionally powerful, and full of The Expanse vibes.” — ARC ReviewerPerfect for readers of The Expanse, Dune, and character-driven science fiction.Book Two, Starborn Alive: Cracks, is available now.
