Genesis Drift: The Sleeping Worlds

After the survivors of Earth are abducted and relocated by an enigmatic alien race, the crew of the Genesis Drift ventures deeper into uncharted space—seeking safety, purpose, and understanding in a universe that no longer makes sense. But in this new book, they discover something far older than themselves: a scattered remnant of the Architects, the long-extinct alien civilization whose technology shaped the galaxy.

When a shattered moon draws them in with an irresistible psychic signal, the crew unearths something terrifying: a viral consciousness known as the Architect Queen, once imprisoned in that broken world, now awakened and searching for a host.

Enith, the ship's brilliant and emotionally fractured engineer, becomes the Queen's vessel—and her key to infiltrating the ship's neural network. As hallucinations spread and trust erodes, the crew grapples with impossible choices. Is the Queen a godlike intelligence offering salvation through evolution—or a mind-consuming parasite that must be destroyed?

With Skylar Riven leading the charge, the crew battles inner demons and real-world threats, delving into haunted technology, corrupted Echo systems, and warped versions of their own memories. But nothing compares to what they find on Kalithar, the barren world where the Queen was first born—and buried.

There, in a simulation that tempts them with false utopias, each crewmember must confront their past, resist the seduction of perfection, and choose freedom over control. Their rejection fractures the Queen's grip… for now.

But she is not gone.

Only dormant.

In the stillness that follows, the crew prepares for what comes next. Because the stars are vast, and somewhere in the dark… she is remembering them.
