The Endpoint series continues as Ryan and Violet make first contact with a god-like mega-neutron star. The encounter draws them into a veritable star chamber and a questionable welcome. Using images from Ryan's own memory, the otherworldly encounter conveys a message and a path to discover long-lost technology. Meanwhile, the Daerk rampage drives on, and countless stellar structures have fallen to the Lumuera. Unchecked proliferation of the darkness has created an imbalance in the galaxy and drawn the attention of powerful, advanced species, each with uncertain motives. From Ryan's perspective, a curious gravity has drawn together a handful of survivors. As the number of aligned associates grows, Ryan and Violet make a shocking discovery, and even stranger alliances are forged. With a growing rebellion that includes outcasts and gangsters, the line between enemies and allies is blurred. The deeper Ryan and Violet wade into this New Life, the more they come to understand the dangerous double-edge of their role. In a precarious dance between salvation and destruction, the battles to come will involve manipulating time and unleashing forces of pure power. To become a conduit of these forces and restrain their cataclysmic nature, Ryan must be prepared to sacrifice everything-even his own life.
