From visionary author C. T. Rwizi comes the epic journey of four people on a distant planet who face the ultimate test of loyalty, friendship, and duty in the rising tide of war.

A corporate aristocracy descended from Africa rules a colony on a distant planet.

Life here is easy—for the rarified and privileged few. The aristocrats enjoy a powerful cybernetic technology that extends their life spans and ensures their prosperity. Those who serve them suffer under a heavy hand.

But within this ruthless society are agents of hope and change. In a secret underwater laboratory, a separatist cult has created a threat to the aristocracy. The Primes are highly intelligent, manipulative products of genetic engineering, designed to lead a rebellion. Enabling their mission are the Proxies, the Primes’ bodyguards and lifelong companions bound to their service.

When the cult’s hideout is attacked, Proxies Nandipa and Hondo rush to the rescue. As they emerge with their Primes onto the surface, however, everything they’d been led to believe about their world is shattered.

Nandipa and Hondo will risk it all to honor their oath of absolute loyalty. But when the very people they’re tasked to protect turn on each other, the Proxies must decide between those they were built to serve and the freedom to carve out their own destinies. And the fate of their planet may rest in their choice.

“Rwizi’s exciting novel captures the political maneuvering and danger of the Hunger Games series with a universe fans of Nnedi Okorafor’s Binti books will enjoy.” — Booklist

“A remarkable new talent.” —Tor.com

One of the many reasons I love science fiction is that I am able to explore so many different visions of humanity’s future. The genre can be dystopian, but it can also be encouraging, showing us that even when you think the world is going wrong, there are people striving to set it right.

I was first introduced to author C. T. Rwizi’s imagination with his Scarlet Odyssey epic fantasy series. As with that trilogy, Rwizi’s new novel blends speculative concepts in a way I’d never seen before—this time in a faraway galaxy. On a planet colonized by descendants of modern Africa, two people destined to serve others are faced with a choice to finally pursue their own fates—and their world hangs in the balance. When we first meet our protagonists, Hondo and Nandipa, they are bound as bodyguards and companions to the people that have been chosen to lead a revolution. But we follow along as they self-actualize, bringing hope to their civilization that people can achieve freedom from oppression.

From cybernetic technology to genetic engineering and otherworldly intervention, this universe and our characters’ experience of it had me fully immersed. I hope you have as much fun on the journey as I did.
