The Minds Between Stars
A War Across Worlds
The war can end. The price is everyone who survives it.
Humanity survives by remaining useful to three ancient alien civilizations. When rescue captain Elias Mercer saves a dying Zyloth envoy, he awakens carrying memories that are not his own.
The Zyloth want their dead returned. The Veyran believe Elias may be able to end the war. The K’thar see his separate consciousness as a wound that must be healed. With his estranged wife and daughter drawn into the conflict, Elias must decide how much of himself—and humanity—can be surrendered in exchange for peace.
