Vitreous

Asmar Cohem Kaharim is a seasoned mercenary, the kind who always survives. Not because of instinct, as everyone believes, but thanks to Imp—an illegal artificial intelligence hidden inside his skull for more than twenty years.
Aboard the corvette Last Wish, Asmar and his crew live on the fringes of civilization, scraping together credits and carrying out dirty jobs for a powerful corporation.
But when a seemingly routine mission leads them to a mysterious object moving through deep space, everything they think they know begins to unravel.
The unknown vessel is beautiful, unsettling, and impossible to classify. It resembles nothing humanity has ever encountered. It could be a threat, a wonder, or proof that the universe is far larger and more mysterious than anyone has ever dared imagine.
As tensions rise and hidden ambitions and secrets threaten to tear the crew apart, Asmar must decide where he stands: continue serving a corrupt system, or pursue a different future—one that may be impossible.
Some discoveries change history. Others change who we are.
