The highly anticipated sequel to the Born of Ash series is finally here. The war is over. The First Galactic Empire has collapsed into ruin and ash. Or has it? Keira, having been hunted and almost killed by the Unified Planetary Government's regulators, for reasons she does not fully understand, finds herself rescued by Marines and stranded on the Imperial Starship Seringapatam. Dispatched on a secret mission of the utmost importance, the Seri is a ship that has remained hidden since the last days of the war. More confusing, Keira has developed a strange power she cannot seem to control, let alone understand, the ability to interact with the machine in ways that are unexplainable. Companions, Marines, and her guardians, Chris and Wash, are both dead. Vex, her only remaining friend and ally, is critically injured. Confined to her father's cabin by the Seringapatam's mistrustful captain, Keira discovers a hidden message. Her father passes the responsibility for his critical mission, what the Seri was dispatched to accomplish...to her, instructing Keira to travel to the planet's core and find the precursor ruins. There she must somehow locate the Infinity Controller, a powerful and mysterious artifact. But what is the Controller? Keira does not know. It apparently has the ability to change everything. She has been named a princess of the empire, and potential heir to the throne. But does the empire still exist? Or is Seringapatam its last holdout? More troubling...can she even trust the crew of the Seri, or do they, like the UPG, want to use her ability to interact with the machine for their own nefarious purposes? Complicating matters, the empire's ancient enemy has returned in strength. They want the Controller too and will stop at nothing to get it. Find out why thousands of readers have fallen for Amazon bestselling author Marc Alan Edelheit's captivating books! The battle to save humanity begins here!
