A Signal for Redemption
A dying ark ship. A feudal world. A scout who must bring them together.
The settlers of the ark ship Redemption have waited generations to begin their lives on a new planet. But when they finally arrive, nothing is as it should be.
The ship is overcrowded and breaking down. Supplies are almost gone. And instead of the advanced society they counted on, they find a world that has fallen into a feudal age of lords and swords, rebellion and war. Without the technology the settlers need, the ship cannot land.
Piers Haldon, the most powerful Empath they can spare, is tasked with a desperate mission: scout the planet below and find a way to bring the ship safely down.
With no allies, no landing site, and thousands of lives at stake, Piers must seek others who share his psychic gift. If he can unite them, the Redemption may yet survive. If he fails, the ark—and everyone on it—will be lost forever.
A Signal for Redemption is a character-driven science-fantasy novel that combines first contact, political intrigue, and speculative ideas with a story about trust, identity, and the challenge of building connections across profound cultural differences.
