The Divide. It's the edge of the universe. Now it's collapsing--and taking everyone and everything with it. The only ones who can stop it are the Sentinels--the recruits, exiles, and court-martialed dregs of the military. At the Divide, Adequin Rake commands the Argus. She has no resources, no comms--nothing, except for the soldiers that no one wanted. Her ace in the hole could be Cavalon Mercer--genius, asshole, and exiled prince who nuked his grandfather's genetic facility for "reasons." She knows they're humanity's last chance. The Divide series

The edge of outer space
Published by Sally Mander , 3 years ago
The Last Watch by J.S. Dewes
This was a pretty good Sci-Fi book, it's the start of a series. It revolves around the future, in space, after humans have destroyed Earth. The Argus space station is located at the edge of the Divide. Beyond the divide, there is simply nothing.
Argus is a penal colony, mostly consisting of military personnel who are sent there to do penance for their crimes. The Divide starts encroaching on Argus and the people there have no choice but to evacuate. Of 2,000 people, only 25 escape. They try to get to another space outpost, to see if they can contact their Command.
They find that almost everyone and everything they knew is destroyed, it is up to them to save the universe.

Any book has the ability to transport us to new and different experiences, but science-fiction and fantasy is unique in that it imagines entirely new worlds and possibilities to explore. For many of us, this genre represents the ultimate escape from reality.
