Nyxia

Beyond Earth’s Horizon

In a future where Earth’s resources have dwindled to crisis levels, Nyxia thrusts readers into a high-stakes competition orchestrated by the enigmatic Lathen Corporation. Sixteen young recruits from across the globe are offered the chance of a lifetime: a one-way voyage to planet Eden, and untold wealth in the form of the precious element Nyxia. Among them is seventeen-year-old Emmett Atwater, a resourceful yet guarded teenager driven by the promise of saving his ailing mother. But Eden’s beauty conceals lethal challenges, and trust is as rare as oxygen in the competition’s ruthless arena.

Trial by Luminescence

Upon arrival, Emmett and his fellow cadets discover that Eden is not the uninhabited paradise they expected, but a world teeming with bioluminescent forests, shifting terrain, and creatures beyond imagination. Each day brings new trials designed to test their strength, intelligence, and allegiance. Emmett’s greatest adversary may not be the other recruits, but his own doubts as he confronts impossible choices: sabotage or solidarity, greed or compassion. As the Nyxia within him glows and pulses with alien energy, he must learn to harness its power without being consumed by it.

Bonds of Constellation

Alliances form in the shadows of Eden’s neon canopy, where friendships are forged and broken in the blink of an eye. Emmett finds an unlikely ally in the fearless Ross MacConnell, and together they navigate alliances that shift like the planet’s tides. Across abandoned research outposts and crystalline lakes, the pair uncover Lathen’s hidden agenda—and the true cost of Nyxia. When the stakes escalate to life-and-death, Emmett must decide whether to fight for individual triumph or risk everything to protect those he has come to care for.
