The Altered Moon (Dust Cosmos Book 1) - The Second Edition - Paperback

by James A. McGettigan (Author), Angie Greth (Editor)

A tyrant's command. An alien mystery. One soldier caught in a war he never chose.

On the planet Galiza, obedience is coded into the mind. Half-wolf, half-human, its people march beneath the Moon Goddess' gaze, their loyalty enforced by neuro-chips that feed propaganda straight into their thoughts. For 15 year old soldier Amat Criptous, service to the autocratic dictator isn't a choice-it's hardwired.

But everything changes when an alien vessel ominously lands on the moon. Silent. Alluring. Terrifying in its mystery.

Compelled by the dictator's ruthless orders, Amat is forced into skirmishes with the visitors, each clash pushing him further into a web of secrets that have long been suppressed. Torn between his programmed obedience and the truths he uncovers, Amat must decide if he is willing to remain a pawn in the tyrant's game-or risk everything to defy him.

The choices he makes will ripple across the universe, shaking faith, loyalty, and the fragile balance of power in the Dust Cosmos.

Fast-paced, action-packed, and layered with conspiracy, The Altered Moon is the explosive first entry in a military sci-fi saga where faith collides with technology, and one soldier's awakening may ignite a revolution among the stars.

Fans of The Expanse, Warhamer 40K, Halo, Ender's Game, and The Ember War will love it!
