Enzo Cruz was raised to destroy the system. Maddie Westing was born to inherit it. Together, they'll have to burn it all down to save what matters.

The complete Against the Red Sky duology — Mission X and Colony Exposed, together.

Mission X (Book 1): On an Earth running out of water, Enzo is Terra Primera's youngest operative, sent to infiltrate a new facility training recruits for the Martian colony — and sabotage its shuttle before it ever leaves the ground. Maddie is one of thirty elite students chasing her dream of reaching Mars and her mother. When their paths collide, so does everything they thought they knew — and exposing Transcendia founder Augustus Sardeth won't come without a price.

Colony Exposed (Book 2): Enzo and his friends are sent to Mars to die building domes they'll never live in. Maddie has to break out of her uncle's facility and reach Mars before it's too late — only to find a colony built on a secret darker than either of them imagined.

Buying separately: $35.98. Bundle price: $29.99 — save $5.99. Signed copies (plus free gift) bundle for $39.99 (vs. $49.98 separately — save $9.99).

This is a pre-order: Mission X is available now; Colony Exposed launches October 13, 2026. Your whole order ships together once both books are ready. Both eBooks are included, free, and shipping's free too.
