Synopsis

When ominous auroras warn of coordinated earthquakes, a tetrachromatic fifteen-year-old ambassador must decode Óðin’s messages and rally his twin and friend to stop a shapeshifting army before the world fractures into ruin.

Erik thought being an interstellar ambassador would mean interviews and weird fan mail. He didn’t expect to read red auroras warning of war. He didn’t expect a three-eyed giant to pick a fight in his backyard caves. He definitely didn’t expect to be the one making life-or-death calls.

With Finna’s arrows, Kalli’s rallying voice, and a runaway sculptor who knows more than he should, Erik faces shapeshifters, subterranean armies, and the maddeningly pretty green lights of an angry sky. The Meridian Loki built is still singing — and it’s tuning the whole planet into a weapon. If they don’t stop it, Earth will fall.

Endorsements

Midwest Book Review calls this “Original, exceptional, and a fun read from start to finish” and “a superbly crafted action/adventure that can be read in sequence or as a stand alone SF novel.”

5-Stars from Literary Titan: Inner Space Aliens is imaginative and surprisingly tender beneath all its lava tubes and cosmic peril. It’s the kind of sequel that expands its world by making it weirder and sadder, while also giving Erik a satisfying turn at the center. I finished it feeling that the book’s heart is one of its strongest qualities, especially once the surviving characters come back together and the victory is shaded by the warning that the struggle underneath Earth is not over. I’d recommend it most to readers who enjoy YA fantasy with Nordic myth, hidden worlds, earnest heroism, and a taste for adventure stories where emotion and lore are allowed to sit side by side. “
