A New World Awaits... But at What Cost?
Sixteen-year-old Max has only known Earth as a history lesson-a planet devastated by war and climate collapse. Like the rest of the passengers aboard the Odyssey Ark II, his destiny is to sleep for decades in a hibernation pod, waking only for a one-year shift to keep the ship operational on its centuries-long journey to a distant star.
But when Max awakens, something feels off. As he uncovers secrets buried deep within the ship, Max begins to question everything he's been taught about the mission, the ship's purpose, and even his place in society.
With time running out and the truth more dangerous than he could have imagined, Max must decide: follow the rules, or risk everything to find out exactly what is happening on board?
Perfect for fans of science-fiction and adventure, this gripping sci-fi adventure explores hope, resilience, and the fight for a better tomorrow.All Rights Reserved

Shadows of Empire (Cadicle Vol. 1-3: An Epic Space Opera) by Amy_DuBoff

A secret war. An empire in crisis. One final hope for victory. Wil Sietinen is driven by duty. Second-in-line to a preeminent family dynasty, the young noble would rather design starships than plot political schemes or battle strategies. But when Wil is kidnapped by a mysterious alien enemy, he discovers that a brutal interstellar war has been covertly waging for centuries-and only his unique telekinetic powers can end the conflict. Learning that he's the genetic endgame of a generations-long plan to win the war, Wil grapples with his daunting responsibility to become a leader with the skills needed for a decisive military victory. But when he realizes that the enemy isn't who he's been led to believe, Wil faces an impossible moral dilemma as the fate of two civilizations hangs in the balance. Caught between ruthless adversaries and unsure who to trust, can Wil build the right alliances to secure his galactic empire's future? This timeless space opera epic with adventure, telekinetic abilities, coming-of-age, romance, and intrigue will appeal to fans of Star Wars, Anne McCaffrey, Frank Herbert's Dune, and the Lensman series by E.E. "Doc" Smith. Join three generations of the Sietinen family as they challenge destiny to win a war and lead a revolution that will change the course of an empire.
