The Gideon Vortex: A Realm War Novel

The Realm War has begun. The Coalition’s greatest advantage is about to become its greatest weakness.

After surviving the Imperial Fleet’s attempt to hunt her down, seventeen-year-old Nola arrives at a hidden Nexus domus, where the mother she never knew awaits her, along with the truth about the bloodline that made her a target. As her talent awakens—the power to steal heat from the world around her—the Nexi believe she may be the only one capable of opposing Tarik, the Empire’s flame-wielding enforcer.

But the Empire has already seized the initiative, implementing its plan to crush the Coalition rebellion. While Imperial fleets strike the tyranium worlds that fuel the Coalition’s weapons, a darker plan unfolds in secret: seize Gideon, the hyper-jump hole that gives the Coalition its greatest strategic advantage.

Amid the chaos, the Empress sends Tarik on his most dangerous mission yet, deep into the heart of a Nexus stronghold. His task:

Capture Nola alive.

With a classic science-fiction feel and worldbuilding, Rick Campbell delivers the next installment in the Nexus House series. Blending political intrigue, high-stakes conflict, and thought-provoking futurism, this epic adventure will captivate fans of Frank Herbert and James S. A. Corey alike.
