The Starfall Prophecy

The emperor is dead; his entire bloodline slain by a mysterious assassin in one night.  The star-spanning Meridian Empire teeters on the brink of civil war as rival states maneuver their fleets for battle and the Church tightens its grip: preaching unity while quietly preparing for holy conflict. On the drifting mining station of Cinderhollow, Draven is a nobody, just another survivor scraping by in the shadows of imperial rule. Till he’s taken; kidnapped by the most powerful force in the empire, a Solknight. He's dragged into a hidden ignition lab aboard the station to be experimented on to further Solor core ignition success and power. Between ruthless scientists and isolation, Draven’s body is forced past its limits until something awakens inside him; something the Church will brand heresy and the states will kill to control. When a strike fleet descends on Cinderhollow to steal the research, Draven escapes into the void with a target on his back… and a destiny burning in his chest. Whatever Draven is becoming, may decide the coming warand fulfill a prophecy the Empire tried to bury among the stars.
