A mockup of The First Sin by Cheyenne Brammah. The First Sin In the sweeping expanse of the Årdrakin Empire, the people fight and die for honor as elite warriors of the galaxy. But long ago, a prophecy was spoken that presaged the apocalypse. Everyone knows and fears the truth: one day, the empire will fall. Tårik is a guard for small, independent Clan Tsinna. Instead of pondering the end of his civilization, Tårik’s greatest concern is maintaining his honor while escorting a group of impertinent dignitaries across the treacherous Barren Gale. When the Mother Goddess speaks a passage from the prophecy to him, he has the good sense to be frightened, but he doesn’t heed the significance of Her visit. Then disaster strikes, and Tårik is branded as an exile, leaving him with no home, no honor, and no future. Forced into a desperate struggle for survival, all Tårik can focus on is living just one more day until luck—or maybe fate—gives him the opportunity to join a new clan. But even this is fraught with danger and uncertainty, and it takes him to an inhospitable world far from the empire where survival seems all but impossible. Faced with new challenges, including trying to navigate first contact with the low-tech locals, Tårik believes the prophecy can’t reach him. Yet it continues to loom, signaling that his fate and the fate of the empire are irrevocably entwined.

Sometimes. Mostly in that I have to do the shopping excursions and Christmas markets on the weekends, which is prime writing time for me.

EVOLUTION OR CREATION?

For the årdrakin, the books mention their animal ancestor as well as the drakinvïr, a small flying dragon that they are related to. So, they evolved.

I think the other species in the Akrodaxis were also born of evolution. But you never know!

I went into this #BookBazaar25 with hopes for the best, but absolutely no idea what to expect, and it's been wild.

There is a lot of science in the Akrodaxis. It's a galaxy of space-faring species, so they depend on science every day just to exist. But not everyone has the same level of understanding and there are a few (like the skarastaja) who are just discovering what science is.
