THE IRON CATHEDRAL The galaxy is a graveyard. It’s time to wake the dead. Jax Sullivan is a "Null"—a scavenger on the junk-world of Krios-9, destined to die in the same rusted silt he digs for a living. In a galaxy ruled by the cold, calculated logic of the Corporate Authority, "Nulls" aren't people; they’re just biological machines that haven't been recycled yet. But the Bone-Yard is hiding a secret from a dead empire. Deep beneath the dunes, Jax discovers the Aurora: a sentient, Precursor warship that has been waiting for a commander for ten thousand years. When Jax touches the hull, he doesn't just find a ship—he bonds with it. Suddenly, he can "see" the code of the universe, and the silver liquid in his veins is rewriting his very humanity. Now, Jax and a rag-tag crew of outcasts are on the run. High Director Vane has authorized the Cinder Decree, and he’ll glass an entire planet just to reclaim the ship's power. To survive, Jax must master the Aurora’s impossible technology before the ship's "Logic" deletes the man he used to be. What to expect: • Progression: Watch Jax evolve from a desperate scavenger to a galactic powerhouse. • Sentient Tech: A warship with a personality and a sarcastic droid who hates bad coffee. • Epic Scale: From rusted junk-planets to the silent beauty of the Star-Graveyard. • Hard Scifi/Cyberpunk Elements: Bio-digital hacking, space-folding "Blinks," and high-stakes orbital combat.
