The Ayda

Earth has fallen. The Ayda is coming home.

Sergeant Rosco Martin escaped the invasion aboard humanity's ancient flagship. His wife and children were left behind.

In the Andromeda Galaxy, Rosco and the survivors find the impossible: a hidden civilisation where humans and Xenari live together, descended from people who fled a war millions of years ago.

Arcadia has food, shelter and the technology Earth desperately needs. Its leaders have no intention of letting their guests leave.

On occupied Earth, Dr Janelle Martin is keeping her three children alive in the ruins. When her voice reaches scattered resistance cells, she becomes a target the Xenari cannot ignore—and a leader she never meant to be.

As Rosco fights to reclaim The Ayda, his allies uncover evidence buried in the Union's forbidden history. The war that destroyed Earth began with a lie. Exposing it could change everything, but the people protecting it will kill to keep it hidden.

To reach his family, Rosco must escape the world that offered to save him and bring an ancient warship home through an enemy fleet.

Janelle has to keep them alive long enough for him to get there.

The Ayda is Book Two of The Origin Series—a military science-fiction adventure of occupation, rebellion and a family fighting its way back together.
