Hyper Object Vol. 2

The Hyper Object is a mythical artifact said to grant unimaginable power to its wielder. Few believe it truly exists, but those who do would stop at nothing to find it.

Below the surface of an inhospitable planet lies a sprawling network of people whose existence relies on Hyper, a precious mineral found deep underground, for light, food, warmth, and shelter. Those most favored in this hierarchical society are the shapers, people born with the ability to manipulate Hyper with their thoughts. Serving as architects, healers, machinists, and countless other professions, shapers wield Hyper to support themselves, power their communities, and carve out a comfortable place in the world.

Those born of a high bloodline near the upper crest without this power are sent to the Hyper mines.

In this second book of the ongoing fantasy sci fi series, Meshi calls the Enforcer, Knight of the Holy Cutlass Order, to exterminate Lees and reclaim the Hyper Object for himself.

Now facing the full might of the Oppri, Lees must grapple with the Hyper Object's blinding visions and terrifying power to fight back. But when it threatens to consume her completely, Jez, Teeg, and the people of Last Light are forced to rise up to save Lees, fight the beast, and eliminate the threats that could tear them apart.

Shae Moloney has lived in Minnesota her whole life and falsely believes the sub-zero-degree winters have made her a more resilient person. Shae's been telling stories forever, and when she's not writing professionally or recreationally, it's because she's being interrupted by her dog Lup.

Mark Sidener has worked in the film industry over the last 15 years, exploring many different creative projects in that medium. During that time, he co-founded Outer Giant Studios with his best friend Kyle Keller to take their creative spirits to the next level! Some would say over level 9000. As an avid lover of all things anime, Mark currently binges countless series with his beloved cat Ms. Peaches when he's not working on his own stories. He is the co-creator for the fiction book series The Keeper of Traxia.

Kyle Keller has been staring at the inky black night sky and dreaming of fantastical worlds since he was old enough to have his first existential crisis. Since then, he hasn't stopped feverishly scrawling his stories onto any medium he could get his hands on from film, tv, books, comics, music, and digital. He is the co-creator for the fiction book series The Keeper of Traxia. Kyle loves creating entertainment and bringing the characters in his mind to life in our world. Somehow he convinced Mark and Shae, two of the most talented people in the world, to be his lifelong creative partners and he is all the better for it. This book and all of his ideas would not exist without them.
