Description
Set sixteen years after the events of The Exiled Earthborn, this explosive conclusion of the Earthborn trilogy tells the story of two brothers, the sons of Lucas and Asha, tasked with surviving the Xalan war to ensure the continued existence of the human race.
Noah, an orphan from Earth's last days who, as a child, was smuggled to safety across the stars, is now nearly a man and a leader to the young enclave of Earthborn who reside on Sora. When the tranquility of their settlement is shattered by a shocking assassination attempt, Noah turns to his combative younger brother Erik, Lucas and Asha's only child by blood, for aid. Their journey takes them to the remnants of a dead planet, an outlaw-infested space station, and back to Sora, whose inhabitants are bracing for a final showdown with the bloodthirsty Xalans.
They find themselves facing a new evil: the omnipotent Archon, who is somehow controlling the whole of the Xalan horde, and his bloodthirsty lieutenant, the Black Corsair, who has an unmatched taste for brutality. The Archon, so-called God of the Shadows, has unearthed knowledge that could wipe both Sorans and humans alike from the face of existence. The descendants of the Earthborn must uncover the true nature of the Archon and the Xalans before he burns everything they know and love to ashes.

        November 30, 2015
        The players crowd the stage for the busy final act of Tassi’s star-spanning Earthborn space opera trilogy, set 16 years after the events of The Exiled Earthborn. The children of Lucas and Asha, the last couple from Earth, have taken up the gauntlet of war with the alien Xala. Giant Noah, wielding a high-tech warhammer, and sly Erik, using speed and guile, are embroiled in plots to save a princess of Sora and to rescue their long-absent father. In turn, Lucas and Asha must learn to trust their sons and to find the inner strength to keep family and allies together as the ultimate villain behind their troubles finally makes an appearance. Tassi melds a coming-of-age narrative with a philosophical nod toward dealing with pain and sorrow in the midst of the horrors of war. Forgiveness may be possible; forgetting, however, is not an option. The epic vibe doesn’t detract from the quieter truths, and small victories of the heart carry as much weight as clashes of space dreadnoughts.
