From The Ashes: A coming of age adventure set in a future a hundred years post-Earthfall

There is fire in Yosh's veins. He feels it whenever he looks at the stars. Living with his grandfather on an obscure, but peaceful slave colony isn't enough anymore. During daytime Yosh is a model of obedience (mostly). At night, he sneaks off to the band of smugglers he's befriended, his only link to the universe beyond the deceitfully serene skies.

One day Yosh's only concerns are to avoid trouble with the local imperial guard and to endear himself with the lovely smuggler Assai, the next he becomes the target of a man only heard of in banned books and frightened whisperings about rebellion.

The name Mikail Munov strikes fear and hate in the hearts of all humans throughout the imperial worlds. So why is the Head of the Arkanian Secret Police interested in Yosh and his unassuming grandfather?

Why does he jump his massive flagship in orbit above Yosh's home-planet?

Why land hundreds of crack troops in the small, dingy agrarian settlement?

Why carve a path of torture and murder through the locals in a frantic search?

Yosh will need his smarts, every trick he ever learned, and a boatload of help from his smuggler friends if he's to survive and uncover the truth of the events engulfing him.
