Synopsis

In this war, technology can tear open a deflector shield. Spirit Travelers can cross the Inner Worlds. And black magic can decide the fate of a planet.

Toemeka Ganti is an electrical engineer and Coalition undercover operative working inside the military complex of occupied Jaipar. Her mission: complete an experimental oscillator that could breach the enemy’s defenses—without letting the technology fall into enemy hands.

But Jaipar’s ruler commands more than soldiers and starships. General Bhandar is a powerful sorcerer serving Samrat Condor, the galactic conqueror whose forces destroyed Toemeka’s family. Through military occupation, forced worship and black magic, they intend to bring still more worlds under their control.

When Toemeka’s cover begins to unravel, Michio Kimes—an enigmatic Ahimsa Warrior trained to fight sorcery—draws her deeper into the planetary resistance.

Soon the struggle is being fought on two fronts. Starfighters, energy weapons and experimental technology collide with telepathy, Spirit Travel, divine Light and Sound, and the dark forces of the Inner Worlds. And as Toemeka and Michio move from wary allies toward something far more dangerous to their carefully guarded hearts, their growing bond becomes impossible to separate from the conflict surrounding them.

Their relationship is a major part of the journey, but the fate of an occupied world still hangs in the balance.

Star Rider on the Razor’s Edge is an adult science-fantasy space opera blending undercover espionage, resistance warfare, starfighter action, metaphysical conflict and a strong romantic throughline.
