Nearly a thousand years removed from Earth, the remnants of humanity cling to existence inside giant, space faring creatures known as the Zenzee. Abused and exploited by humans for generations, these majestic animals nearly went extinct, but under the command of its newly minted ruler, Doka Kaleigh, life in the Parados I has flourished. Thanks to careful oversight and sacrifice by all of its crew, they are now on the brink of utopia, and yet Doka's rivals feel threatened by that success.

The Senate allowed Doka to lead their people believing he'd fail spectacularly—a disaster that would cement the legitimacy of their long-standing matriarchy. Despite vocal opposition and blatant attacks on his authority, Doka has continued to handle his position with grace and intelligence; he knows a single misstep means disaster. When a cataclysmic event on another Zenzee world forces Doka and his people to accept thousands of refugees, a culture clash erupts, revealing secrets from the past that could endanger their future. For Doka, the stakes are bigger and more personal than ever before—and could cost him his reign and his heart.

He has fallen for the one woman he is forbidden to his wife, Seske.

Doka and Seske must work closely together to sway the other Zenzee worlds to stop their cycles of destruction. But when they stumble upon a discovery that can transform their world, they know they must prepare to fight a battle where there can be no winners, only survivors.","format",{"_30":24,"_47":118,"_119":120,"_121":58},"publisher","Eos","page_count",336,"duration","published_date","February 23, 2021","isbn","9780062867759","asin","006286775X","hex_code","language","English","purchase_links",[],"cover","https://cdn.blackauthored.com/books/4499i/c5abe449-59d8-4927-a6fd-8203d48c5aec.jpg","Paperback","type","print","audio","order",{"_30":124,"_47":125,"_51":126,"_127":-5,"_128":-5,"_33":129,"_130":131,"_132":56},"d8d70931-e694-4f81-af7d-5976579be46f","Nicky Drayden","453-nicky-drayden","biography","image",3,"roles",[133],"in_catalog","author","fb37e0fe-b316-4e77-88d6-7e92daa73e4d",[],[152],"c28c534a-7d96-45ce-a962-bf4fe390dade",{"_11":32,"_30":31,"_122":24},2019,"Oct 2019","2019-10-15","4523-escaping-exodus","Escaping Exodus is a story of a young woman named Seske Kaleigh, heir to the command of a biological, city-size starship carved up from the insides of a spacefaring beast. Her clan has just now culled their latest ship and the workers are busy stripping down the bonework for building materials, rerouting the circulatory system for mass transit, and preparing the cavernous creature for the onslaught of the general populous still in stasis. It’s all a part of the cycle her clan had instituted centuries ago—excavate the new beast, expand into its barely-living carcass, extinguish its resources over the course of a decade, then escape in a highly coordinated exodus back into stasis until they cull the next beast from the diminishing herd.

And of course there wouldn’t be much of a story if things didn’t go terribly, terribly wrong.
