Sundrown

Humanity has worshipped the Luminaries for twelve thousand years—artificial suns believed to have saved civilization from extinction. Elias Vale never questioned them. He was only a maintenance technician, one insignificant man keeping one impossible star alive. Then the star speaks to him. “You need to kill me.” What begins as an impossible message pulls Elias into a conspiracy spanning empires, dying worlds, ancient alien civilizations, and a darkness that does not simply destroy life—it erases every future life might have had. As governments hunt him and entire star systems begin to change, Elias discovers the truth humanity was never meant to know: The Luminaries are not gods. Most of them are already dead. And something has been hiding behind their light. There were never thousands of them. There were only seven. Now Elias may be the only person capable of hearing what remains—and the only one who can decide whether humanity’s last light deserves to survive. SUNDROWN: The Last Light is a dark science-fiction epic of cosmic mystery, war, faith, ancient technology, and humanity’s fight for a future that may already be disappearing.
