The Ophelia Prophecy

A thrilling new SF romance from the author of Ghost Planet

Extreme biotech experiments lead to the accidental genesis of a race of mutant humans with insectlike qualities. Highly intelligent, tribal, and embittered toward their creators, the Manti engineer a virus that nearly wipes out humanity.

Thirty years later. Pax and Asha — strangers and enemies — find themselves stranded together on the wrong side of the Manti border, neither with a memory of how they got there.

Asha is an archivist working to preserve humanity’s most valuable resource — information — viewed as the only means of resurrecting their society.

Pax is a menacing presence in the skies over Sanctuary, the last human city. He patrols the border, keeps humanity in check, and picks up strays for the slave trade. As the son of a Manti lord, he is viewed as untouchable.
