Is that glow on the horizon humanity’s bright future… or a herald of fiery death?

It’s 2029, and America’s space program, once a beacon of hope for the future, is now a guttering candle. Even as Roscosmos thrives and China’s manned space program reaches new heights, NASA prepares to send the last symbol of a once-mighty dream of exploration —the International Space Station —tumbling to its fiery death.

Then, from out of the darkness, something slams into the station, sending it spinning out of control… a new deep-sea habitat suffers a mysterious explosion after a visit from the Chinese Navy. Suspicions grow, tensions flare, and decades of economic and political posturing threaten to ignite a third global war.

Each passing day drags the major powers closer to conflict… almost as if someone, somewhere, is manipulating events to their advantage…

With war looming and the East and West splitting into two dominant factions, space becomes a strategic and critical goal for whoever controls space, controls humanity’s future.

While the world governments rattle their sabers and put their militaries on high alert, a pair of private space innovators hold the keys to conquering the final frontier… and a new, aggressive, and deadly space race roars to full throttle!

With two new global space agencies at one another’s throats, plans for putting a pair of permanent artificial gravity space stations in orbit are no longer a dream but a tactical necessity…and there can be only one victor.

In this gripping new near-future science fiction saga, you’re swept along on a river of discovery, innovation, romance, and espionage, all while riding the powder keg of a new world war that could detonate at any moment!
