About this book

Jessahme Wren’s Terra Firma follows Sev, a young girl growing up in a galaxy where lasting security is rare. Traveling through space with her emotionally distant father, she moves from one risky job to another, getting by in a life shaped by uncertainty, danger, and constant motion.

Everything changes after a major assignment on a hazardous planet goes wrong. From there, Sev is pulled into a path filled with peril and revelation as she reaches for something more than mere survival. At its heart, this science fiction adventure is about the longing for a place to belong, the hope of a better future, and the possibility of finding family where she least expects it.
