All Thoughts Laid Bare

Vekorna have returned to kidnap humans from Terra. Defeated by Aderen’s ability to manipulate their minds, they bring a small team to Rykol, who aim to stop the vekornan raids forever.

Born on Rykol, Kuyi dreams of being free -from her family, and the war waging between winged and wingless vekorna. Gaining Aderen’s confidence, she helps him search for pieces of the coveted stellar fragment, a crystal that amplifies telepathic powers.

Haunted by his past, Aderen tries to avoid mind control. But his mission grows urgent after learning the true reason behind the vekornan fleets to Terra -a reason he can’t share with the others. His only recourse is to find and use the stellar fragment, heedless of Kuyi’s horror at the extent of his mental abilities.
