Full Description

What if first contact wasn’t the beginning… but the consequence of being remembered?
In the late 22nd century, humanity reverse-engineers a crashed alien vessel buried beneath Antarctica. The result: the Acheron, Earth’s first interstellar ship, launched with a crew of soldiers, scientists, and secrets.
But when they discover a distant Earth-like world—ravaged by war and ruled by a brutal galactic empire—the crew is mistaken for survivors of a long-dead civilization. Captured and interrogated, they must keep the truth hidden: that they come from a planet no one in the galaxy even knows exists.
Because Earth was never supposed to be found.
Now, with ancient technologies awakening and alien forces converging, Commander Helena Ward and her divided crew must navigate a forgotten war, unlock the secrets of an all-powerful AI called the Oracle, and survive a trial that will decide not just their fate—but the memory of Earth itself.
