Sky on Fire

The skies of Venus are about to burn

When pirate warlord Simon Boucher launches a devastating surprise attack on the floating city of Aether, retaliation is inevitable. Missiles tear through the clouds, autonomous drones hunt their targets, and millions of civilians are caught in the crossfire of a war that could engulf the planet.

Magdalena Fairchild has already lost everything once. Formerly a rising star in Venusian racing, now a widow turned bounty hunter, she is working with Providence—the most feared mercenary force in the Venusian colonies. After Aether falls under attack, Magdalena joins the counterstrike, determined to bring the pirates to justice.

But as the conflict spreads, a far greater power takes notice. The Olympian Order—genetically engineered supermen who rule Earth—turn their gaze toward Venus. What began as a pirate war may be the opening move in a much larger struggle for control of the solar system.

Will this war end the pirate threat, or ignite something far worse?

A fast-paced science fiction adventure in the vein of The Expanse, Battlestar Galactica, and Firefly, this novel delivers high-stakes futuristic combat, morally complex warfare, and a heroine fighting to survive on the frontier.
