Introducing "The Kardashev Cycle," a captivating science fiction trilogy that begins with the critically acclaimed "Mercury's Shadow," a finalist in the 2022 BBNYA. This series launches readers into a universe where the thirst for power and the quest for freedom collide.

Our journey starts with Imogen "Chim" Esper, a young girl whose life is upended by the Kardashev Corporation. With her family torn apart, Chim, alongside her robotic ally, becomes an unwitting symbol of resistance against a corporation bent on harnessing the sun's energy for its own gains.

As the story unfolds in the second installment, Chim finds herself a marked fugitive, navigating the complexities of her past while evading the relentless pursuit led by Alton Neal, the corporation's formidable CEO. His determination to capture Chim introduces new threats and allies, thickening the plot with intrigue and suspense.

The trilogy reaches its crescendo in the third book, where Chim's resilience is tested against Neal's unyielding ambition. The final chapters weave a tale of defiance and courage, culminating in a showdown that holds the fate of the solar system in its balance.

"The Kardashev Cycle" is more than a series; it's a thought-provoking blend of adventure, science, and humanity's enduring spirit. With its richly drawn characters and a narrative that resonates with the challenges of our time, this trilogy is a compelling read for those who seek both escapism and reflection in their science fiction.
