In the distant Sombrero Galaxy, humanity is on the brink of extinction, losing a centuries-long war against the merciless Xenari. With their homeworld already destroyed, the last survivors-aboard the warship The Ayda and the colony ship The Last Hope-make a desperate attempt to escape using untested jump technology. But their escape goes horribly wrong, and they crash land on a strange, prehistoric world-Earth, 65 million years in the past.

Stranded in a world ruled by dinosaurs and stalked by hidden Xenari infiltrators, these survivors are forced to rebuild a new civilization from the ground up. As they struggle to survive, they activate Protocol 7, releasing cryogenic "seedlings" that are meant to repopulate the planet when the conditions are right. These seedlings are humanity's true origin. Our ancestors are not native to Earth but were planted here by survivors fleeing an intergalactic war.

Fast forward to the present, Australian SAS soldiers uncover an alien artifact buried in the Outback. This discovery awakens Kurung, a long-dormant android from The Last Hope, and a beacon that is calling the Xenari to Earth. Now, Earth's final stand begins as the Xenari return to finish their ancestors' work. An unlikely group of international soldiers, archaeologists, and journalists-must race against time to uncover the truth about humanity's origins and prevent the ultimate destruction of Earth.

With explosive space battles, thrilling action, political intrigue and a deep exploration of humanity's origins, The Last Hope is a must-read for fans of science fiction, high-stakes adventure, and thought-provoking narratives. This 99,000-word epic will have you questioning everything you thought you knew about the past-and the future. Get ready for the ride of a lifetime.
