In the late 23rd century, the Sun begins to die centuries ahead of schedule, plunging Earth into chaos. As the planet freezes under a failing star, Commander Rhea Quinn is chosen to lead the Odyssey - a massive generation ship carrying 50,000 survivors on humanity's final voyage into the stars.But beyond the edge of the solar system, the crew intercepts a mysterious signal - human voices whispering a warning from deep space: "Do not follow the light."When the Odyssey discovers a derelict twin ship identical to their own, drifting for millennia despite launching only decades before, Rhea realizes they are caught in something far greater than a mission of survival. Time itself has become their enemy.Guided by the ship's sentient AI, LYRA, Rhea uncovers the terrifying truth: the signal came from humanity's own descendants, beings who exist beyond time - The Continuum. They warn of a cycle that has doomed humanity for eons... and Rhea must decide whether to save her people or end the loop forever.In a breathtaking journey across space and time, Afterlight explores what it means to be human when survival is no longer enough - and the courage it takes to let go of the past to ensure the future.
