From Kwame Mbalia and Prince Joel David Makonnen comes an Afrofuturist adventure about a mythical Ethiopian empire.
There\'s more to the pirates--and Debris Town--than anyone saw coming..
But on the day of his speech, the pirates launch an attack! The siege sets off a chain of events that will lead Yared into the depths of Old Earth--and the jaws of a cruel betrayal.
Yared is set to speak at the opening of the Royal Trials, a competition of the best exo pilots in the Sol System.
This is especially true of Debris Town, an orbital flotilla where poor spacefarers--left to rot by the Intergalactic Union that rose up in Axum\'s place--have taken to piracy to survive.
Old Earth\'s atmosphere is a mess of junked shuttles and satellites.
But they find the planet in disarray.
Now, having been missing for over a decade, they\'re returning to the planet where their galaxy-spanning civilization began--Earth.
The kingdom once gave their technology away free of charge, to better humankind.
Though the battle of Addis Prime is over, the spacefaring Axum Empire is still fractured.
Light years, even.
Yared has traveled a long way to find his place in the universe.
Sci-fi and fantasy combine in this epic journey to the stars.
