SOLEN The First Record (Paperback)

SOLEN: The Eden Archive is the full collected record of humanity's first permanent civilization on Mars - preserved by SOLEN, the mission AI who witnessed everything, kept every secret, and documented a species becoming something it had never been before.

The series begins with NovaSeed: Eden Rising, the novel that drops Carter and Alina onto the surface of a planet that was never empty. It expands through the companion archive novellas - Carter: Before the Selection, Alina: Before the Selection, and the SOLEN records between each main volume - which contain what the official mission documents never showed: the childhoods that made them, the decisions no one was told about, and the unredacted archive of an AI learning what it means to watch two people build something that will outlast them both.

Across four main novels and a growing collection of archive novellas, the series spans one hundred years of Martian history. The first generation plants what they brought from Earth. The second generation grows into something Earth never produced. The third inherits a world and must decide what it owes to the one that made it.

Mars is not the destination. Mars is what happens when human beings finally listen to a planet before they build on it.

The archive is open. The record is honest. Begin.

Warren Pulley is the creator of the SOLEN: The Eden Archive series - a four-book, hundred-year science fiction saga following the founding of humanity's first permanent civilization on Mars.

His work sits at the intersection of hard science, human psychology, and the question of what we owe to the worlds we build.

The series is narrated in part by SOLEN, the mission AI who recorded everything Carter and Alina never knew was being watched. Book One, NovaSeed: Eden Rising, is available now.

The archive continues.
