Ignition Independently Published Inferno Protocols- Ignition Point Paperback

Life on Emberfall is built on risk.The remote asteroid colony survives by carving industry into rock and shipping its resources across the outer systems. Accidents happen. Equipment fails. Sometimes things explode. For Kaelar Vance, that usually means one thing: he is the one sent to deal with it.When a routine mission sends Kaelar to investigate a long-abandoned research station orbiting Emberfall's fourth moon, he expects another salvage job and a quiet payday.Instead, he finds something that was never meant to be discovered.Deep within the silent station lies a dormant artificial intelligence from a civilization far older than humanity. When Kaelar brings the system back online, the AI awakens, curious, unpredictable, and far more powerful than anything currently known.It calls itself CAPRA.The discovery sets off a chain reaction neither of them fully understands. Strange signals ripple through nearby systems. Hidden networks begin to stir. And powerful factions that operate in the shadows of human space suddenly take an interest in Emberfall.Now Kaelar finds himself caught between corporate power, Dominion agents, and a rogue intelligence that may hold the key to technology humanity was never meant to control.And the deeper they dig, the clearer one truth becomes.The artifact they uncovered was not a mistake.It was the ignition point.
