When you’re lost beyond the stars, the only way home might be deeper into the darkness.

Stranded thousands of light-years from home, General Connor Gates faces the brutal reality: their battered ship is failing, supplies are dwindling, and home is an impossible distance away.

Their only hope lies with a mysterious alien prisoner who offers a dangerous bargain—freedom in exchange for guidance to an ancient outpost with technology that could save them all.

Their voyage plunges them farther into uncharted space, where every shadow hides peril.

The Forsaken Outpost, a massive relic adrift in the dark, hints at a galaxy far grander—and more treacherous—than they ever dreamed.

In this gripping sci-fi epic, Connor must navigate a crew fraying at the edges, outwit a foe who knows too much, and decode the outpost’s secrets before their time runs out.

It’s an adventure where courage clashes with doubt and where every discovery rewrites the rules. Betrayal is almost certain, but survival demands risk—can Connor outsmart the enemy and lead his crew back home?
