Korinna has simple priorities: stay on the Navitas, stay out of trouble, and stay alive. She may be a Redseer, a blind priestess with the power to manipulate space-time, but she is the weakest in her Order. Useless and outcast. Or so she has been raised to believe. As she takes her place as a navigator on an Imperium ship, Korinna's full destiny is revealed to her: blood brimming with magic, she is meant to become a weapon of the Imperium, and pawn for the Order that raised her. But when the ship is attacked by the notorious pirate Aster Haran, Korinna's world is ripped apart. Aster has a vendetta against the Imperium, and an all-consuming, dark power that drives her to destroy everything in her path. She understands the world in a way Korinna has never imagined, and Korinna is drawn to her against her better judgment. With the Imperium and the justice-seeking warrior Sahar hot on her heels, Korinna must choose her side, seize her power and fulfill her destiny-or risk imperiling the future of the galaxy, and destroying the fabric of space-time itself.

Reviews-
March 11, 2024 Mooring’s inventive if sometimes chaotic debut science fantasy follows three young women and the dieties they worship. Goddesses Vermicula, Radiosa, and Furia have been entombed for thousands of years, but their worshipers are still blessed with goddess-granted powers. Korinna is part of the Order of Vermicula, possessed of Redsight, which alters the vision of those who have it while allowing them to manipulate the energy known as tactus. Red priestesses serve as navigators for the Galactic Imperium, powering the government’s warships. White priestesses of the Order of Radiosa serve as the Imperium’s conveyors of justice and knowledge and use tactus to feel out the truth. The Order of Furia was driven extinct by the other two orders centuries before the start of the book. After Korinna’s ship is attacked by the pirate Aster Haran, who reveals to Korinna the dark truth about the Imperium’s rule, the women band together—along with Sahar of the Order of Radiosa—to bring balance back to an unraveling galaxy. After a rushed beginning, magic and technology blend together to create an enthralling world. Fans of the Locked Tomb series should check this out. Agent: Ernie Chiara, Fuse Literary.
