Publisher Description

They came to build a home. To keep it, they'll have to give up everything. Including the ones they love.

After the Battle of Halcyon Score, Patrick "Wic" Finnegan and Phantom Team make landfall on Capriana Prime, an unclaimed water world where settlers and one twelve-year-old girl hope to build something that lasts. They name it, print foundations, plant crops, draft a council, and let themselves hope humanity's worst chapter is behind them.

What they don't know is that JoJo has been seen. An ancient multi-species order hunts anyone who can touch the Unity. The Serathen do not parley. They erase. When their fleet emerges above Capriana Prime, the only thing standing between humanity's last hope and the silence that swallowed countless civilizations before is a wall, a line, and one last stand.

The Ruins of the Earth saga ends here.
