Stolen From Earth

They were stolen from Earth to be a symbol. They survived to become a weapon. Ryo Sanders is a nobody, a disillusioned thief surviving in the cracks of a futuristic Earth. His life is a series of small cons, not grand adventures. But when silent, monolithic ships fill the sky and abduct thousands in a terrifying, silent harvest, Ryo is taken with them—a piece of biological cargo in a war he doesn't understand. He awakens stranded on Xeros: a harsh, red desert world ruled by a technologically superior race that has suppressed all emotion. In their rigid society, love is a literal act of treason, a forbidden bond that triggers an irreversible transformation, turning their jet-black hair a luminous, shameful white. Hunted and alone, burdened by survivor's guilt, Ryo must use his street smarts to navigate the teeming, oppressive undercity. He becomes a ghost, a black marketeer trading in relics from a lost Earth. But his desperate quest for survival leads him to an encounter that will change the fate of the galaxy: a fateful meeting with Aura'lyn, the beautiful, captive daughter of the planet's ruthless Supreme Chancellor. She is everything he is not—a creature of duty, power, and profound loneliness. But the forbidden connection they forge is immediate and dangerous. With a single touch, her hair begins to turn, a visible mark of her rebellion. Their bond becomes the spark that ignites a planet-wide civil war, and Ryo, the forgotten castaway, finds himself at the center of a prophecy he never believed in. Caught between warring factions, Ryo must choose: remain a ghost, forever running, or embrace his role as the anomaly who can burn down an empire. But in a world where love is the ultimate crime, will their connection be their salvation, or the trigger for their mutual destruction? Stolen From Earth is a sprawling, cinematic sci-fi epic perfect for fans of Dune and The Hunger Games**. It's a story of rebellion, survival, and a love so powerful it can remake a world. **
