Earth is an ancient myth.
A post-apocalyptic, zodiac-inspired science fiction mystery with a take-no-prisoners female lead who blazes a trail to correct the past.
Earth is long forgotten. Now, on humanity’s new homeworld of Hellen, the god-like Celestials rule with brutal efficiency. When Joss, an Engineward, discovers and reactivates the head of an ancient ghoulem, she finds all is not as intended. Her destiny lies somewhere far beyond the borders of her shantytown, where an abandoned seed of hope waits.
As Aquarius launches an investigation into the Celestial murder, Shiptown is brought under fierce Celestial Law, and the allegiances between the gods begin to fray. Meanwhile, Joss locates a fragment of the Oert and learns the terrible truth about what it will cost to remake the world—and the painful reality of what really happened to her father.
