Chroma:Prelude
Publisher Description
They've been here all along. We just couldn't see them.
When physicist Alex Nikolov detects a strange signal from the ionosphere—a signal that perfectly mimics the biophotons of living cells—he stumbles onto the greatest discovery in human history.
We are not alone.
But the beings aren't from another planet. They're from another dimension. The Syl have lived beside us forever, invisible, waiting. Waiting for someone who could hear them.
Now, with the help of biophysicist Nia Petrova, respected scientist Professor Levin, and Nia's sister Eva—a reclusive software genius with secrets of her own—Alex must convince a skeptical world that the Syl are real.
And that they have a message.
Deep in the Oort Cloud, a naked black hole drifts through space. The Syl call it a library—the memory of galaxies. And they're right about most black holes. Except for this one.
But powerful forces want control. A financial empire with its own agenda. And beneath it – strings pulled from somewhere much older. And deep in interstellar space, something else is waiting. Something that has always been there.
Something that has a name.
R5A1.
CHROMA is the first contact story reimagined—a journey from laboratory to the edge of a black hole, where the light of our cells becomes the language of the universe.
CHROMA: Prelude is the first part of the series, followed by INFOCHROMA: Fugue – the first full-length novel. Book 2 goes back ten days before Light's launch and expands the story with new characters – in Tibet, in dreams, and at the heart of a conspiracy that threatens life across the universe.
