Overview

When a godlike being awakens into slavery, she discovers that power without love is tyranny-and sometimes freedom demands the unthinkable. Nadine opens her eyes on a Georgia plantation in 1850 as something unprecedented: a being of three species, carrying abilities that transcend human limitation. But she awakens as property, subject to the machinery of slavery, confronted immediately with a truth that will define her existence: power alone cannot liberate anyone. Martha, an enslaved woman who will die at fifty-nine, teaches Nadine something alien forces and cosmic warfare cannot: that ordinary people-not gods, not the powerful-build revolutions. That freedom is constructed through community and protected through continuous choosing. That resistance is not a moment in history but a practice maintained across generations. What follows is a journey that stretches from plantation escape routes to dimensional battlefields, from underground resistance networks to cosmic-scale war. But at its core, Nadine's Epoch asks one devastating question: What is the price of power, and who pays it? This is Afrofuturist science fiction that centers Black resistance knowledge, refuses the messianic narrative, and insists that extraordinary beings are only useful when they serve ordinary people. It is a story about genocide and transcendence, power and love, the impossible choices that transform everything. It is a story about Martha, who fought for freedom knowing she would never see it won. And about what those who come after do with the future she died believing in.
