Two families. Two loyalties. One decision to make.
Fledgling pilot Jayden is one of the first generation born on the newly colonised planet of Osivirius. Determined to lift his family out of ‘Wormsville’—where people are treated as little more than numbers—he jumps at the chance to earn a reward by locating the rebel base.
Nettle, fiercely loyal to the rebels and protective of their grounded, nature-bound ways, despises everything about the colony’s military rule. So when she and her brother Flint discover Jayden after he crash-lands, she’s ready to eliminate him without hesitation.
But as Flint nurses Jayden back to health, Nettle’s hatred shifts to empathy—and then to something far more complicated.
Jayden plans to escape on a Masu—one of the giant flying cats the rebels ride—but when the opportunity comes, he finds himself torn. His blood family still needs him… yet the valley and the life it represents pull him in a different direction.
With the connection to nature of Avatar and the political tension of The Hunger Games, this science fantasy novella delivers high-stakes choices, immersive world-building and a romance that tests loyalty, identity and courage.
