Description

The revolution is over. Together with Draz and Monarch, Kea now commands the ship that has always been her home. But Kea is young, socially challenged, and terrified of becoming the monster who ruled before her.

Then, in the midst of struggle, she discovers the diary of an enigmatic writer named Mara... revealing a secret world of friendships and fairy tales, a homemade resistance parallel to their own.

But while Kea and Draz unravel the question of who Mara is, and what became of the rebel group called the Fish Pond... their own voyage comes to a sudden end. Now they find themselves in a world both human and alien, caught in an otherworldly conflict between two colonies far beyond their own. And the writer of that diary may hold the key to all their futures...
