See the full book description below.

On a world where obedience is mandatory, one soldier is becoming something more.

On the planet Galiza, loyalty is carved into the mind.

Neuro-chips flood the thoughts of its half-wolf, half-human citizens, binding them to a ruthless tyrant who rules beneath the gaze of the Moon Goddess. Soldiers are not asked to serve.

They are programmed to.

Fifteen-year-old Amat Criptous was born into that system—disciplined, conditioned, unquestioning.

He was never meant to awaken.

When a colossal alien vessel settles above the moon—silent and unknowable—the tyrant responds with violence. Amat is thrown into brutal lunar skirmishes against an enemy no one understands.

Meanwhile, his body is changing.

Time falters at his command.
Darkness cannot hide from his sight.
The limits placed on him start to break.

Amat was never meant to realize the scope of his biokenesis—let alone evolve it.

The tyrant sees what he is becoming.

He has long searched for a being like Amat.
And he intends to claim him as his ultimate weapon.

If Amat submits, the tyrant may gain power enough to douse stars and fade nebulae.
If he rebels, he will uncover a war far older than Galiza—one he was born to fight.

The aliens did not arrive by accident.

And neither did he.

Perfect for fans of Warhamer 40K, Halo, Empire of Silence (Sun Eater Series), Red Rising, The Ember War and The Dune Saga will love it!


The Altered Moon launches a brutal military sci-fi saga where faith collides with evolution—and awakening power may decide the fate of the stars.

The war for humanity has already begun.
