When utter defeat confounds you, where might victory hide?
Uzuri, a new-minted astronomer on her first posting, can't wait to observe the stars from deep space. But when she awakens unable to form or hold new memories, probing the mysteries of the universe must surrender to unravelling the mystery of her own loss.
She finds the space station entirely deserted and all its floors coated by a black, gritty ash. Alone and without recourse, Uzuri hunts answers.
When she learns the truth of what happened, she must abandon the comforting path of retreat to face disaster, no matter the agony, or suffer her soul's death.
Read-Only Ash is a science fiction tale of valor in extremity. If you enjoy heroic last stands, grab-by-the-throat intensity, and ultimate peril, you'll love this ringing-the-changes-on-catastrophe story by J.M. Ney-Grimm.
