Homebound

Book One in the Homebound Universe

Set in the year 3299 After Earth, Homebound is a dark science fiction epic that unfolds across a semi-dystopian universe ruled by powerful noble Houses and shaped by rampant technological advancement.

For centuries, two rival Houses-House L'Nore and House Preston-have been locked in a brutal struggle for dominance. House L'Nore, led by the Emperor Theodore L'Nore III, governs the Explored Universe with a gentle hand but an ever-present military might. Their authority is challenged constantly by House Preston, a power-hungry noble lineage that strikes both openly and from the shadows through warfare, espionage, and assassination.

The fragile balance shatters when both Houses uncover the existence of an ancient alien superweapon, capable of annihilating entire galaxies. Buried in forgotten systems and cloaked in mystery, the weapon becomes the center of a deadly race-one that could tip the scales of power forever.

In a world where cybernetics, body modifications, laser weaponry, early nanotechnology, and starships are the norm, loyalty is fleeting, trust is dangerous, and the lines between man, machine, and monster are increasingly blurred. As secrets unravel and betrayals surface, the fate of countless worlds will hinge on who claims the weapon first-or whether it should be claimed at all.
