Expiation (Shadeward Book 4)

Shadeward: Expiation is the explosive finale to Drew Wagar's Shadeward Saga. A world is pulled apart as past secrets collide with a cataclysmic present.

This is science fiction firmly grounded in science fact as modern myth meets old technology. Shadeward: Expiation follows the fortunes of the players from the first three novels.

The all-powerful priestesses are whipped to a white heat of vengeance in defence of their god, Lacaille, the star that blazes in the skies above. Coran and the Mobilis crew battle to unravel the keys to survival, but tradition, myth and the vengeful priestesses stand in their way.

Lacaille burns ever more fiercely, ever more deadly, above their world of eternal day, everlasting night, burning deserts and frozen wastes. Meru, Kiri and Zoella are now tied by bonds of both hatred and devotion and somewhere from within the emotional maelstrom, they have to find the strength to act, though they still have no idea how to turn the tide of fate.

All they know is that the Obelisk continues to call them. The answer when they find it is shockingly unexpected and horribly inevitable.
