    About this series

    This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

    The Sevora have been defeated, and now Kaishi and Sax come together on opposite sides, with the galaxy’s most powerful force in between.

    Kaishi goes from one threat to another when the same alien army that saved Earth from the Sevora invasion demands that Kaishi submit humanity to their rule. Submission comes with gifts, peace, and a promised place at the galactic table. Resistance means certain destruction.

    Her choice seems forced, until Kaishi sees a struggle unfolding as Sax leads a rebel assault on that same army in a desperate attempt to restore freedom to a galaxy in chains. If Sax succeeds, and Kaishi joins his effort, then she might win Earth’s freedom.

    But if Sax fails, then Kaishi’s life, her people, and her planet are forfeit.

    The Last Cycle is the final book in The Skyward Saga, a sci-fi adventure series that brings the galaxy to the brink of cataclysmic change, where hope rests with those brave few willing to risk everything for a better future.

    If you like fast-paced, action-driven science fiction with a new twist on the alien encounter story, you’ll love A.R. Knight’s The Last Cycle and the entire Skyward Saga.

    This is a single-narrator edition. For a full-cast edition, where every character has a unique voice, check out The Skyward Saga audio box set.

      This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. To save her family, Kaishi fights a desperate war for survival against enemies from Earth and far beyond. Meanwhile, an alien warrior must choose between his honor and his orders as his love faces a fate worse than death. Caught between warring factions, Kaishi and her tribe face extinction. When a burning meteor lights up the night, Kaishi investigates and finds a creature with answers for everything, with secrets that could let Kaishi save her people. All Kaishi has to do is follow Its orders, no matter where they might lead. Sax leads a final assault against the galaxy's most hated enemy, one that holds surprises deep inside its besieged ship.

      This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. Kaishi embraced the gifts the Sevora gave her, but becoming an empress has attracted the kind of attention that comes with claws. Following the Sevora’s guidance has brought Kaishi and her people back from ruin and into prosperity, but as miracle after miracle pours from the voice in her head to the forges in Kaishi’s great city, interstellar eyes take notice. Sax arrives on Earth with a single goal: find the Sevora, and destroy it, along with its hosts. Until, on the brink of victory, Kaishi’s life is spared by a strange intervention, one that will take her away from Earth and into a galaxy far larger, and far more dangerous, than she ever imagined. Mind’s Eye is the second book in The Skyward Saga, a sci-fi adventure series filled with frenetic action, weird creatures, and a universe begging to be explored. If you like fast-paced, action-driven science fiction with a new twist on the alien encounter story, you’ll love A.R. Knight’s Mind’s Eye and the entire Skyward Saga.

      This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. To survive on an alien world, Kaishi must decide whether to trust the creature inside her mind, or reject it and risk everything to fight for her freedom. Ignos lied. The alien promised to take Kaishi and her friends back to Earth, to home. Instead, Ignos has brought them to its own world, teeming with other parasites that see the humans as hosts, and a potential gateway to their own survival. The Sevora make an offer to Kaishi: join with them, take their technology, and forge a new destiny for both species together. With the Sevora, of course, controlling their human hosts. Across the stars, Sax escapes the crumbling space station and finds himself at odds with his own race and galactic law. Picked up by salvagers who see him as a valuable piece of living scrap, Sax must learn how to live outside the structure that gave him his power, even while he tries to find a way to bring it down. Clarity’s Dawn is the third book in The Skyward Saga, a sci-fi adventure series spanning alien worlds, unique technologies, and colorful characters scrambling to survive as odds mount against them.

      This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. Home. Kaishi can see Earth, but between her and home sits a hostile fleet, a desolate wasteland, and too many things that want her dead. Her sole chance at survival depends on a risky attempt to reach Earth's far side, where nobody Kaishi knows has ever been. Landing there means a long journey home, but it's better than dying in space. Except the Earth Kaishi finds when they reach the surface is far different than the one she knows, and learning why the ground is covered in ash will mean questioning everything she thought she knew about her tribe, and her species. Meanwhile, Sax learns that he's far from the only one looking to end the corruption taking root at the galaxy's core. This rebel group isn't quick to take on new members, and Sax finds he has to use his wits and claws to fight for what he believes. That is, if he can survive a hostile world and old grudges long enough to join his true cause. Creator's End is the fourth book in The Skyward Saga, a sci-fi adventure series that brings peril, heart, and fascinating technology in equal measure as Kaishi and Sax look to save their species and themselves. This is a single-narrator edition. For a full-cast edition, where every character has a unique voice, check out The Skyward Saga audio box set.

      This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. Earth is under overwhelming assault, and Kaishi has arrived to lead her people, just in time to see them destroyed. Hiding under the mountains with continuous attacks from the skies, Kaishi marshals humanity’s remnants in a final stand against overwhelming odds. Hope resides in a last ditch effort to call out beyond the stars for help, as Kaishi climbs the cliffs to fight one final time beside her friends. Sax is in similar straits, uniting with other rebels in a strike at the very core of the galaxy, to a planet few are allowed to see, much less set foot upon. There they must try to find a weakness, a way to expose and end a millennium-spanning plot to control the galaxy’s sentient species. Humanity Rising is the fifth book in The Skyward Saga, a sci-fi adventure series that puts the galaxy at risk as whole species wage wars for survival, worlds are ruined in revenge, and histories are rewritten by the victors. If you like fast-paced, action-driven science fiction with a new twist on the alien encounter story, you’ll love A.R. Knight’s Humanity Rising and the entire Skyward Saga.

      Why It’s Hard for Black Holes to Get Together: The universe’s greatest sinkholes have no trouble swallowing anything—except themselves.

      Feb 4, 2016

      It begins like a classic romance: Two black holes meet. The attraction is practically instant. They dance around each other, swirling closer and closer, until ... Until what? As with any love affair, this is where things get messy. First predicted by Einstein’s theory of general relativity, black holes are bottomless pits in the fabric of spacetime—gravitational wells so deep that nothing, not even light, can escape. Little black holes, trapping the mass of just a few suns, litter the universe like silent land mines, while the biggest ones, the supermassive black holes, occupy the center of ne
