On the mining moon Ydro-Down… He’s fighting for freedom She came to destroy Caught between a rock and a hard place… Just keep digging One rare mineral—qubition—powers transgalactic voyages across the Salty Way and took humanity to the stars…while dooming Q miners to the dark. On mining planetoid Ydro-Down, the veins of ore are going too deep, and now the miners have two choices left: keep digging their own graves or revolt against their corporate overlord QueCorp. Either path will likely mean their end, but mine foreman Gavyn Grey is willing to lead them into hell itself. After an unexploded Q-bomb left over from the ancient Oblivion Wars wiped out her peaceful world when she was a child, Lumia d’Aspiring was taken in by the Order of the Last Candle. The anti-technology spiritual sect trained her as an assassin, saboteur, and terrorist—charging her to save what remains of the Salty Way from the hungers of humanity run amok. Infiltrating Ydro-Down as intercessor Yumi Swinton to destroy QueCorp’s operations, she instead finds the wicked corporation subjugating the miners—including the ruggedly intriguing but untouchable Gavyn Grey. Should she help the miners end their tyranny? Or make sure nothing and no one survives the revolution? After decades of desperation, Gavyn knows not to trust anyone. But the quick, quiet Yumi has skills his faltering revolution needs…and secrets he’s determined to uncover. Can he win her over before QueCorp’s vicious overseer takes them down? There are dangers in getting too close to anyone around the treasured qubition, but trusting each other might be their only hope of survival on the Obsidian Rim. Includes a sneak peek at the next book in the ObsidianRim.com galaxy. Obsidian Rim: Edge of Sunrise Rock Rift Fire Strike Black Claim
