In the chaotic expanse of the Lytherion Rift, where gravity bends and stars flicker like dying flames, the fate of a shattered galaxy rests in the hands of a disgraced heir and a storm-wielding rogue. *The Obsidian Beacons of Lytherion’s Rift* by Jason Howell is an epic tale of cosmic intrigue, where ancient relics hold the power to reshape reality—or destroy it entirely.
Exiled and hunted, Eryndis Valthen stumbles upon the first Obsidian Beacon, an artifact etched with cryptic glyphs that hum with divine energy. Once destined to rule the fractured Empire of Aeltrax, Eryndis now faces a choice: harness the Beacons’ power to reclaim her throne or destroy them to prevent galactic annihilation. Her path intertwines with Kaelth Draemir, a tempest-pirate bound to a sentient storm entity, whose motivations are as enigmatic as the cosmic storms he commands.
Together, they navigate the perilous Rift, pursued by the relentless Devourer Armada and Eryndis’s treacherous siblings, who will stop at nothing to claim the Beacons for themselves. As they unlock the relics’ secrets, they uncover a chilling truth: the gods bound within are not saviors but predators, feeding on the chaos they create.
With the galaxy teetering on the brink of collapse, Eryndis and Kaelth must confront their deepest fears and make a sacrifice that will either heal the cosmos or seal its doom. *The Obsidian Beacons of Lytherion’s Rift* is a breathtaking journey through a universe where power is a double-edged blade, and redemption comes at the ultimate cost.
Perfect for fans of sprawling space operas like *Dune* and *The Expanse*, this novel blends heart-pounding action, profound character drama, and a richly imagined universe that will leave readers questioning the boundaries of destiny, power, and the stars themselves.
