Dire Days

As humanity quivers on the brink of extinction, McKayla Mason navigates a treacherous path between duty and conscience.

Imprisoned for twelve cycles for crimes against the Armada, Mason is released to join an impossible operation to find a new home for humanity before Kepler 442b meets the same fate as Ancient Earth.

Paired with a team led by the enigmatic Sergeant Major Bentley, Mason is thrust on an intergalactic crusade to an alien planet teeming with sentient life, flora, and fauna-none of which they have seen before. But this utopia soon turns deadly when a disease threatens her squad, pressing them to accept the harsh truths of continued existence.

Mason's fortitude is tested to its limits as conflicts escalate. Trapped between a domestic conflict and haunted by her past, she must defy commands and risk everything to establish an avenue to coexist. But in a new world where trust is scarce and alliances do not exist, will her attempt be enough to save what little remains of humanity?

In this spellbinding tale of loss and redemption, readers journey through realms of danger, alien languages, and discovery. Prepare to explore the depths of humanity's resilience and the boundless reaches of the human mind as the pages turn in this first installment of WolfStar.
