About this audiobook
Fifteen years after the fall of the Basileia, the abandoned station Nikaia-7 drifts in deep space, sealed around a legendary artifact known as the Kyvernitis—an ancient Navigator said to locate anything in the galaxy. Irene Laskarina and her crew arrive first, but rival forces are closing in. To uncover the truth behind the vanished Basileus, they must unlock the relic before their enemies claim it—and before the station’s long-buried secrets awaken.
D. Kent Framo writes military science fiction focused on small-unit action, high-stakes missions, and the human cost of impossible orders. His work explores the intersection of advanced technology and personal sacrifice, where elite soldiers are forced to make decisions that statistics say should never work.
A longtime reader of classic and modern science fiction, Framo draws inspiration from stories that emphasize competence under pressure, tightly bonded teams, and worlds that feel lived-in long before the first shot is fired. His fiction favors grounded tactics, clear stakes, and characters shaped as much by responsibility as by firepower.View all by D. Kent Framo
