Two civilizations hover on the brink of collapse.
One tenuous thread of hope connects them.
Earth cannot resist the deadly devastation of the metallic dragon when it descends unexpectedly out of the sky, belching plasma and leaving ruin it its wake.
Liam Barrows has been tasked with recovering the one piece of technology that might grant humanity salvation – a highly sophisticated deep space communications array. Unfortunately, it’s burried beneath the rubble of the dragon’s initial attack.
And there’s a catch – even if Liam can recover the array, he still needs to find its opperator, a young woman by the name of Gaia. Without her DNA to overcome the array’s genetic lock, Earth may be lost to the dragon’s relentless advance.
Meanwhile, across the galaxy, Alrayia dreams of the end of her world. In her visions, the final blow is delivered by a metallic dragon of immense strength.
While everyone else celebrates the homecoming of Kantis, the Caltaran Empire’s greatest warrior, Alrayia must convince her husband, a member of the ruling council, to build the spaceships that might keep her nightmares from becoming reality – and she must do so without revealing the gift that allows her to glimpse the future.
For it isn’t just her world that depends on her success.
