OFFWORLD – Origins
Book One in the OFFWORLD Saga
A cinematic sci-fi epic of destiny, deception, and the perilous cost of evolution.
In the year 2325, Earth has reached the stars—but what comes next threatens to shatter everything. Orbiting the planet is SHENU: a colossal space ring and hub of human ambition, brimming with cutting-edge technology, volatile alliances, forbidden desires, and a single mission that could rewrite humanity’s future.
But when a mysterious alien Gamma EM pulse cripples the station, chaos erupts. At the heart of it all is Gina Prime—the first of a new species. Created by disgraced genius Anderson Olefors, Gina is Humanity 2.0: engineered perfection fused with unknown alien tech. As the mysteries of her origin intertwine with an imminent invasion and the future of the human race, Gina must confront an unthinkable truth—is she Earth’s savior or its executioner?
Meanwhile, Dr. Tantalus, a transhuman evolutionary architect, is undergoing a horrifying metamorphosis into a reptilian being. His transformation is more than symbolic—it's a warning. Across SHENU, young hybrid Betta Rajastani faces a deadly awakening, while UMA, her twin geneticom, a soul-infused AI, may be more alien than machine.
Leading the charge aboard the dark matter starship Athena is Commander Harrison Byrnes, whose love for Gina could jeopardize the mission—and all of Earth.
