Overview

The emotional First Sister trilogy comes to a sensational climax in this final installment, and is a must-read for science fiction fans everywhere.

Now Astrid uses her knowledge of the Sisterhood's inner workings against them, aiding the moonborn in raids, all the while exploring the mysteries of her forgotten past. Meanwhile, The Sisterhood, thrives under the newly appointed Mother Lilian I, who's engaged in highstakes politics to rebuild the Sisterhood in her own image. The evil of the Sisterhood can't be purged with anything less than fire . . . Hiro val Akira is a rebel without an army.

Transformed by the Genekey virus, Luce navigates the growing schism within the Asters on Ceres. Hurting in her new body, she works to bridge two worlds seemingly intent on mutual destruction. All while mourning her fallen brother, though Lito sol Lucius's memory may ultimately live on. Yet Souji val Akira stands in judgment on them all, plotting the future for the entirety of humanity, and running out of time before war erupts between the Icarii and Geans.
