## Series
- The Consent Chronicles (#1)

## Description

He wakes in a future he cannot explain. His past has vanished. His body knows when danger is coming.

Beyond the vast university ships, an unexplained death draws him into armed conflict and a search for answers that reaches across worlds. A growing attachment gives him something to live for—and something his enemies could take.

The Consent Chronicles begins with a space opera of lost identity, dangerous discoveries, and love caught in a struggle over who gets to decide another person's future.
