Tygan Reaver has never had it easy. His parents ran from the Arius Station massacre only to die, homeless and destitute, in the brutally dangerous Understory of the Andaran Megapolis, a vast, sprawling, overpopulated trade outpost in the Interstellar Collective. Left to fend for himself at the age of twelve, he learns to scrape by, and manages to scratch out a meager living for himself selling whatever he can find for whatever he can get. Until he finds Sierra; beaten, traumatized, and discarded in a municipal garbage heap. But the first contact Tygan has had with another human in ten years doesn't go anywhere near the way he imagined, and Sierra turns out to be much more trouble than he bargained for. Special Ops Lieutenant Sierra Jameson knows things she shouldn't know, and she will do anything it takes to get that information back to her unit, even if it means kidnapping the street tough who dragged her out of the trash. To her surprise, however, the street tough manages to save both their lives when the forces hunting her catch up with her again. Stuck together by circumstances now out of their control, the two of them make a mad run for the Centauri Outpost and what Sierra assumes is safety in the human-controlled Genevan Quadrant. But the clock is ticking, and their desperate journey takes increasingly dangerous turns, stretching their uneasy alliance to the limit as their fight to reach Sierra's military handler becomes a battle just to survive.

Brenorra Warring's father is going crazy. That's the only conclusion Bren can make when a fire destroys everything they own, and his answer is to take a job in the uncivilized Coalition Colonial Region on the other side of the ocean. Then disaster strikes again. Her father is lost at sea, and Bren is left with nothing but the clothes on her back, the things in her father's satchel, and the discovery that he has been lying about his reasons for leaving. When more of her father's secrets come to light, it becomes clear that someone powerful is killing innocent people to keep those secrets hidden - and they are hunting for Bren. As the only person alive who can figure out what her father knew, Bren winds up forming an alliance with two very different men. The first has been tasked with keeping her safe, and will do anything it takes to bring down the organization stalking her, no matter the cost. The other is a brilliant but icy Naval hero who has been branded a wanted man by the enemy. With time running out and danger rising, Bren must solve the trail of coded messages her father left for her and find the last piece of the puzzle before it falls into the wrong hands. The only rule of this game: do not get caught.

BOOK ONE OF THE FADING EMBERS SERIES ----------------------------------------------------------------------- "The embers fade, and the Day of the Lightless shall be upon us." For the longest time, a lonely continent shrouded by Mist was all the nine races of Jordarys ever knew. They knew the Mist was to be feared. Those who were swallowed by the Mist were never seen again. The Mist birthed terrible monsters that rose from the seas, plaguing their land. The gods bestowed the inhabitants of Jordarys with a gift, the Primeval Flames, to fight the scourge of the Mist for as long as they have. However, the flames are dwindling. The inevitable day where the embers sputter and die is encroaching upon them with every rising and setting of the sun. When that day comes, the Mist shall swallow this last remaining bastion of the world whole. Not all would stand idle as the storm brews. The fate of Jordarys teeters perilously in the balance as everyone, from monarchs to assassins to scholars and warriors, fights for their survival. "For only the heir of cinders will inherit the world when the embers finally fade." ----------------------------------------------------------------------- A collaboration between VeryBigMess and @Fiona_jessie.
