A cinematic space opera with the grounded grit of The Expanse and the high-stakes mystery of Project Hail Mary, where the discovery of an ancient, galaxy-shaping secret sets powerful factions on a collision course as the fate of entire systems hangs in the balance. She went looking for salvage. What she found… should not exist. Jexa Krynn is a Rustborn scrapper surviving on the forgotten edges of a fractured galaxy. When she uncovers a long-dead derelict and a relic of the mysterious Architects, everything changes. She touched the past—and now something ancient is awakening within her, drawing the attention of forces lurking in the shadows, determined to claim it for themselves. Whispers. Dreams. A pulse felt across the stars. Now, factions stir. Syndicates close in. And Jexa? She’s just trying to stay alive. STARBREAKER PROTOCOL is the first book in a gripping new sci-fi epic filled with lost technology, ancient myths, high-stakes adventure, and an escalating chain reaction that threatens to reshape the stars themselves.
