Summary
 To save a dying Earth, Commander Silas Vane must fly into the heart of the Sun, and face the ghost of the man he used to be.Three seconds of hesitation during the Martian Secession cost hundreds of lives and ended Silas Vane’s military career in disgrace. Now, with Earth ravaged by catastrophic solar flares, he is offered one final mission: lead the experimental Icarus-7 and a crew of military outcasts into the Sun’s corona to uncover their source.For Silas, it may be his last chance to prove he is still the commander he once was.He expects a natural disaster.Instead, he finds Helios Prime, a vast alien metropolis hidden within the star itself.Caught between a desperate civilization fighting to survive and a human fleet willing to destroy what it cannot understand, Silas and his crew are pushed beyond the limits of duty, loyalty, and survival. And as his ship’s unstable AI begins blurring the line between memory and reality, Silas discovers that the qualities he once believed made him weak may be the very things humanity needs to survive.But saving Earth may require more than sacrifice.It may require Silas to become someone neither his past nor the military ever allowed him to be.Perfect for readers who love the grand scope of The Expanse and the scientific imagination of Project Hail Mary, The Solar Forge is an epic tale of first contact, redemption, sacrifice, and the impossible choices that shape civilizations.©2026 Matt Geers (P)2026 Matt Geers Military Science Fiction Space Opera Emotionally Gripping
