The Military of Foedusum has only grown in strength after the invasion that happened one century ago. As they plan for the final stages of their attack, they develop a prototype of the technology that was supposed to ensure their victory: Project Helion. Its inter-dimensional travel capabilities, while dangerous on its own, becomes more unpredictable once it is stolen by Soké Ékos, a soldier who unexpectedly wakes up from his cryogenic slumber. In a flash, he is gone with the prototype, and the Military turns to one of their best to find the prototype and kill him under charges of treason: Aviromia Ayter, the Soul of Ice, a daring pilot... and Soké's best friend.
Avi, with the help of her friend and fellow Soul Cerise Tandem, as well as Soké's girlfriend June Voler, must embark on a manhunt across dimensions in order to recover what they need to win the war of vengeance. Yet, the more time they spend searching, the more time they have to wonder what it's all for, whether the sacrifices being made are justified. Meanwhile, speculation of who their attackers that fateful day rise, claiming it to be a planet known as Vicula, and they apparently have the means of striking again.
With the clock ticking, it's only a matter of time until they make their final choice on who to align with. As tension builds, and true colours bleed out, can they truly trust not only each other, but themselves, and the cause they're supposedly fighting for?
A dystopian young adult novel involving romance, secret experiments on human subjects, and a group of teenagers' will to survive.
Reader Comments:
"I'm gonna gush about your book real quick...all the technology has a purpose and is beautifully explained so I can picture it in my mind...the whole concept of the book is completely original...*moment of silence for your beautiful arch of character development* everything your characters do is strictly them but they develop enough to show more about themselves without you straight up telling the reader about them" -Vairl9023

Instead she takes out a gun.
