Synopsis

ACROSS THE GALAXY, WORLDS ARE DYING. NOW IT'S EARTH'S TURN. When alien creatures attack research stations across the globe, Kylie Roswell barely escapes with her life. Half a galaxy away, her uncle — veteran soldier Carpenter Lowell — gets the news and immediately wants to come home. But something far worse is already spreading. A biological threat unlike anything in recorded history is moving from world to world, turning everything it touches into a waking nightmare. Governments are scrambling. The portal network is failing. And nobody knows where it started — or how to stop it. Lowell has faced alien wars, political conspiracies, and the end of the solar system. He's never faced anything like this... Arrival launches an all-new Saturn's Legacy trilogy — and works as a standalone entry point for readers new to the series.
