When the crew of the Solstice returns from humanity's first near-lightspeed test, they think the biggest challenge is over.
But strange illusions haunt the ship's corridors, and an impossible stowaway lurks on board. A fractal code begins rewriting the Solstice's AI, hinting at a cosmic entity called the Weaver-one that devours timelines and feasts on humanity's forbidden reach into the stars. As the crew battles fraying sanity, sabotage, and guilt-ridden secrets, they learn every step beyond the light-speed threshold risks tearing reality wide open.
Now Captain Delacroix must unravel the Weaver's hold before meltdown consumes them all. Gripping psychological horror collides with hard sci-fi in this epic struggle between ambition and the terrifying shadows of the unknown-where one wrong move could doom humanity to a cosmic devourer lurking in the darkness. Will they sever the Weaver's threads in time, or become woven into its endless cosmic loom?
