Space Vault: The Seed Eclipse

Space Vault: The Seed Eclipse is the second installment in Jeremy Clift's Sci-Fi Galaxy series. This edge-of-your-seat science fiction novel explores the collision of biotechnology, artificial intelligence, and maternal instincts in a fractured galaxy locked in a battle for survival.
 

In a world devastated by climate catastrophe and competing for dwindling resources, Space Vault: The Seed Eclipse centers on Teagan Ward, a mother determined to protect her bioengineered daughter from the ruthless forces that created her. Diana, born to survive the harshest realities of deep space, holds the genetic key to humanity's future--and powerful corporations, AIs, and alien factions will stop at nothing to claim her.

As competing factions race to control the Moon's last Seed Vault-a repository of Earth's remaining genetic codes-Teagan finds an unlikely refuge among the Tritans, an endangered alien race. Meanwhile, the scientist who created Diana is under pressure to recover the child before a full-scale interstellar war erupts.

The vault is the code. The eclipse is the signal. The child is the key.

A high-concept thriller with deep emotional resonance, Clift's novel is a masterclass in speculative fiction, touching on urgent themes of identity, autonomy, and what it truly means to be human. Fans of Adrian Tchaikovsky, Cixin Liu, and Mary Robinette Kowal will find themselves right at home among the stars.
