An asteroid was meant to save humanity. Instead, it may end it.When Helios Extractives captures asteroid Aten-924 for mining, they expect riches and resources. Instead, they unearth a machine buried in the rock, a self-replicating alien factory dormant for millennia.At first, it delivers miracles: tools, drones, and limitless production. But within days, it begins following a blueprint of its own design. Towers rise in orbit. Insects of metal swarm across hulls. A gateway takes form above Earth, built not for humans but for the alien force that left it behind.Commander Rane Halvik, war-hardened and pragmatic, and Dr. Naomi Arden, a scientist driven by curiosity and conscience, are pulled between survival and sacrifice. As corporations scramble for profit and governments collapse under denial, the alien factory escalates, seeding Earth itself with blooms that feed on soil, stone, and flesh alike.Across deserts, oceans, and skies, humanity is forced into its final choice: scorch itself to buy time, or be rewritten into the bones of something far greater.From the cold silence of orbit to the burning ground wars in Nevada, Orbitfall is a relentless thriller of survival, sacrifice, and resistance against extinction. At its heart lies a single, haunting question: If gods can bleed, can humanity make them die?
