âA truly beautiful novel that redefines the form." âVictoria Aveyard, bestselling author of Red Queen
This morning, Kady thought breaking up with Ezra was the hardest thing sheâd have to do. This afternoon, her planet was invaded.
The year is 2575, and two rival megacorporations are at war over a planet thatâs little more than a speck at the edge of the universe. Now with enemy fire raining down on them, Kady and Ezraâwho are barely even talking to each otherâare forced to evacuate with a hostile warship in hot pursuit.
But their problems are just getting started. A plague has broken out and is mutating with terrifying results; the fleetâs AI may actually be their enemy; and nobody in charge will say whatâs really going on. As Kady hacks into a web of data to find the truth, itâs clear the only person who can help her is the ex-boyfriend she swore sheâd never speak to again.
Told through a fascinating dossier of hacked documentsâincluding emails, maps, files, IMs, medical reports, interviews, and moreâIlluminae is the first book in a heart-stopping trilogy about lives interrupted, the price of truth, and the courage of everyday heroes.
