Connie doesn’t know she’s fleeing something until it catches up with her. Then it’s too late. For her, for the Coalition, and for the whole Milky Way. When her cadet training is disrupted by the appearance of a crystal of invaluable archeological significance right in the heart of Academy grounds, she’s dragged into tomorrow. It starts with visions and ends with the Coalition’s best cadet. Makar is the galaxy’s new shining star. But when a mission goes awry and an ancient artificial mind infects him, he stops being a soldier for peace and starts fighting for the future. He has no choice but to drag the irritating, lackluster Connie with him on a mission like no other. With only one another to rely on and a destructive AI shadowing their every move, they must learn to fight side by side or die standing alone. ….

Book Description
Twenty-year-old Skyler saw the incident out her window: Some sort of metallic object hovering over the Golden Gate Bridge just before it collapsed and a mushroom cloud lifted above the city. Like everyone, she ran, but she couldn't outrun the radiation, with her last thoughts being of her beloved baby brother, Dorian, safe in her distant family home. Flash forward to a post-incident America, where the country has been broken up into territories and Muslims have been herded onto the old Indian reservations in the west, even though no one has determined who set off the explosion that destroyed San Francisco. Twelve-year old Dorian dreams about killing Muslims and about his sister—even though Dorian's parents insist Skyler never existed. Are they still shell-shocked, trying to put the past behind them . . . or is something more sinister going on? Meanwhile, across the street, Dorian's neighbor adopts a Muslim orphan from the territories. It will set off a series of increasingly terrifying incidents that will lead to either tragedy or redemption for Dorian, as he struggles to prove that his sister existed—and was killed by a terrorist attack. Not on Fire, but Burning is unlike anything you're read before—not exactly a thriller, not exactly sci-fi, not exactly speculative fiction, but rather a brilliant and absorbing adventure into the dark heart of an America that seems ripped from the headlines. But just as powerfully, it presents a captivating hero: A young boy driven by love to seek the truth, even if it means his deepest beliefs are wrong.
