First Place BookFest Award Winner — Sci-Fi Series

Earth is gone.
Humanity has one last world.

On the distant planet DaVinci, the survivors of Earth’s fungal apocalypse try to build a future. But the alien Bloom that blankets the planet carries a devastating side effect: no child can be born.

Until one scientist breaks the rules.

Dr. Samara Makinde engineers the impossible… a daughter designed to survive the alien world. The child should save humanity.

Instead, she changes it.

Across generations, DaVinci becomes a battleground. Geneticists push the limits of human evolution. Religious zealots rise in rebellion. Hybrid outcasts blur the line between human and alien. And when a mysterious billionaire arrives with cyborg servants and technology centuries beyond anything the colony possesses, the fight for humanity’s future turns into something far more dangerous.

Because survival isn’t the only thing at stake.

Who gets to decide what humanity becomes?

The Echoes of Tomorrowbox set contains the complete four-book science fiction saga by Alexander Titus and Sean Platt, a sweeping, cinematic story of alien worlds, forbidden science, rogue machines, and the evolution of the human race.

When Earth falls to a devastating fungal plague, geneticist Dr. Samara Makinde joins humanity’s desperate bid for survival on DaVinci, a distant exoplanet meant to be their fresh start. But DaVinci has a secret: it harbors spores that wipe out every pregnancy, threatening to erase the colony before the next generation is born.

Samara believes she can save them with gene therapy, reengineering human DNA to live in harmony with the alien fungus. But psychologist Dr. Ayesha Basu sees only the shadow of her family’s past, genetic “enhancements” that led to madness, and vows to stop Samara at any cost.

Defying the colony’s laws, Samara risks everything to secretly engineer her own child. Her daughter, Phoebe, should be a miracle. Instead, she becomes a spark for paranoia and revolt. When the ruins of DaVinci’s first settlement reveal a mass grave of genetically altered children, fear turns to fury, and the colony fractures into zealots and outcasts.
