The orb chose him. Now everyone wants him dead.
He was supposed to inherit his grandfather’s multi-billion-dollar empire.
Instead, he receives a small black box and a letter.
Inside waits a glowing purple orb that grants its host powerful abilities—and marks them as the most valuable target in the galaxy. Because the orb isn’t just power. It’s a mystery. And according to ancient prophecies, it’s the only one in existence that will turn the tide of the war.
His name is Jagan Cross.
A creature will befriend him. An enemy will join him. But with politicians scheming, enemies closing in, and everyone desperate to claim his orb, Jagan is on the run.
With nowhere left to go, he's forced into the Astro Lon Guda, a ruthless assassin order that punishes speaking and guards its secrets with blood. The more he learns, the more he suspects they aren't just training him to survive and kill. They're preparing him for something far more sinister.
As his abilities grow and the truth behind the orb begins to unravel, Jagan discovers:
The galaxy needs a hero.
But it found its greatest threat.
