Dust (The Dark Monarch Book 1)

Description

She’s an intergalactic pixie, a harbinger of destruction. He’s humanity’s last scholar, clinging to hope in a desolate world. Together, they’re all that stand between the annihilation of mankind and a glimmer of salvation.

In the far-flung future, Earth is a dead world. To make room for new life, the alien Nya is tasked with blasting everything humanity ever built to dust. But when an encounter with a pack of resilient humans sparks a transformation within her, her plans soon change. The good-hearted Nya appeals to her overseers, the Watchers, hoping her discovery will put an end to the destruction so she can return home.

Instead, the Watchers go hunting.

Born with a rebellious spark, Nya vows to use all her power to overthrow her sinister masters and save what remains of the human race. But nobody rebels against the Watchers. Her own mother died trying.

As Nya desperately tries to lead her fellow terraformers to stop a powerful Watcher invasion, she soon learns that victory will come at a terrible price. If she succeeds, she’ll be trapped on a dead world for all eternity.

And that’s the best-case scenario . . .
