THE SPIRAL ARMS SERIES
THE PLANET ISN'T DEAD. IT'S HOLDING ITS BREATH.
For 200 years, the mining colony on Vastara has been living a lie. The administration told the colonists the massive Seismic Dampers were for earthquake protection. They lied. The Dampers were built to silence the regular, rhythmic THUMP beneath the crust—the sound of a planet that is terrifyingly alive.
When the Dampers fail, the noise breaks through, and geologist Dr. Kavi Okonkwo realizes the chilling truth: they aren't on a dead rock. They're on the shell of a SENTIENT GIANT, and its distress is about to tear the colony apart.
Suddenly, survival means more than just finding clean air and algae paste. Kavi and her allies must race against a paranoid security force, a crumbling infrastructure, and a planetary consciousness—The Sleeper—that demands contact. Her only hope lies in finding a way to communicate without losing the very essence of humanity in the process.
In this claustrophobic, high-stakes science fiction thriller, humanity must make First Contact with the creature they call home.
For fans of: The hard science and tense geopolitics of The Expanse, the high-concept biological mystery of Annihilation, and the claustrophobic survival horror of Dead Space.
