Book #2 from the series: The Perfect System

The Last Star of The Wastes

A Mother's Survival

About

In the crumbling heart of Tylaria, in the city of Humeria where survival means silence and obedience, Wren Aninu dares to dream of something more. Raised on forbidden stories of blue skies and rivers beyond the Hive walls, she clings to hope even as her world demands she surrender it. Assigned to raise a child alongside her stoic partner Corvus, Wren sees in their little boy, Noen, a flicker of the freedom she was taught to believe impossible — until defiance costs them everything.

Exiled into the barren Wastes after Noen’s brutal death, Wren must choose between following Corvus into bitter revenge or forging a different path. With nothing but grief, memories, and a whispered promise of a better world, she leads the Hopewalkers westward toward Bwigenga — a city beyond Tylaria’s reach. But survival demands sacrifice, and Wren’s journey will force her to confront the deepest truths about love, loyalty, and the price of freedom.

The Last Star of the Wastes is a dystopian science fantasy of loss, endurance, and the stubborn ember of hope that refuses to die, even when the world does.

Praise for this book

This prologue grips you with its quiet rebellion, a childs wonder against a sterile world, whispered stories of freedom that ache with beauty. The bond between Wyla, Fran and their charge feels so real it hurts, making that final vow to reach the stars land like a hammerblow. Just one earlier hint about the childs unusual connection to nature would make their defiance even more powerful, but this already shines with raw, breathtaking potential.
