MORE THAN POWER (The Consent Chronicles Book 2)

A memory can be preserved. A body can be changed. But who gets to decide what remains of a person?

An invisible fleet. Crowded rescue ships. A promise of protection that demands surrender.

As a desperate evacuation becomes a conflict across inhabited systems, those leading the rescue must decide whom to trust. Alien technology and buried military secrets turn every route to safety into a gamble. Around them, rival powers compete to determine the fate of entire worlds.

Yet the danger is not only in the fighting. Protection carries conditions, and survival can come at the cost of the freedom it was meant to preserve. Saving people is one thing. Claiming the right to decide their future is another. Between those two acts lies a choice that no military victory can settle.

More Than Power expands The Consent Chronicles into a military and political space opera without losing sight of the people whose lives are being decided. Questions of loyalty, responsibility, and consent run through a struggle in which the means of rescue can become instruments of control.

For readers who want the scale and tension of space opera alongside questions about identity and autonomy, this is a story about the limits of power, including power exercised in the name of care. Saving lives is only the beginning. The next battle is against those who claim the right to control them.

Book 2 of The Consent Chronicles. Begin with More Than the Past and continue with More Than Time.
