Ravaged by environmental catastrophe, planet Earth now faces a new threat from space as this dystopian sci-fi trilogy careens toward its thrilling climax. In a future where science has been abandoned and a media empire maintains an iron grip on the minds of the public, a woman known only as H124 has learned the terrifying truth. As a deadly asteroid hurtles toward Earth, she and her Badlander companions race against time to reconstruct the ancient ruins of a spaceship that can intercept it. But they must also brace for the worst—and warn the residents of Delta City to seek shelter from the cataclysmic impact. H124 knows that knowledge is her greatest weapon. And as news of the incoming asteroid spreads, the citizens begin to turn away from those who have kept them shackled in ignorance. Backed into a corner, Earth’s corrupt rulers will do anything to stop H124, even if it means sacrificing the planet itself . . .
