    Summary

    Ryland Grace isn't teaching summer classes this year, so he comes up with the bright idea of going on a "vacation" - AKA, driving across nearly the entire continental United States to go to a research summit. His car breaks down just outside a town so small it's hardly included on maps: Salt Creek, Tennessee, right by the Kentucky border. Maybe it's the warm spring air, the charming tiny library, or the cheap diner food that makes him want to stick around awhile. Or maybe it's the quiet, handsome stranger fixing his car.

    Summary

    After surviving the unsurvivable, Simon is brutally executed at the hands of Consolidation of Iron, rather than granted his freedom. He awakes in a morgue—memories shattered in two—and fundamentally changed in a way nobody is prepared for. Simon must battle his deteriorating psyche, a traumatic past seeping through the cracks, and something eldritch pulling at the edges of his reality, as he re-learns a story everyone seems to know but himself.

    Summary

    There is a void where they could not save the stars. Empty and cold, it lays dormant in its silent death. But some erdians found something impossible: life. Moving, writhing, violent life.

    And they brought it home to Erid. Back to where Grace can learn and observe the impossible alongside his friends and neighbors.

    But what they brought back isn't some mindless creature. It's not just a violent beast. It's human. Undeniably human.

    Summary

    When Grace gets seemingly teleported by means unknown into the SM-13 right as it was nearing The Light, both Simon and Grace have no idea what is happening. Grace knows he was supposed to be in his house on Erid, Simon knows this new guy cannot possibly be a hallucination, and Ava, upon hearing Grace ramble about theories for how he got there, knows that new guy is Smart. Could-Secure-Our-Survival Smart.
    She orders Simon to bring Grace back to the surface, and thus begins Grace's ordeal in a starless universe.
