Retribution has arrived.

The past has caught up with Ashia.

And it wants revenge.

Shanda Vanaad tries to hold together a population on the brink, urging peace and order while preparing for the worst as the alien craft lands on the desert flats. And then they are contacted by the vessel's occupants hailing from a faction that has been preparing for centuries to avenge the past.

Leading at the head of a ravaging horde of mutated humans, Lord Adalric Demsha seeks conquest and will accept nothing less than a complete surrender of Ashia. When the leaders of Ashia refuse, the world descends into a war unlike anything in history.

Will Ashia band together to resist the invading force? Will otherworldly technology be enough to save the ancient city of Ashia?

Ashia: The Queen and the Outcast is the second novel taking place in a dark world within the Star Runners Universe's unfolding events.
