The Circus Infinite
Jes, an empath with the unique ability to manipulate gravity, escapes from The Institute—a laboratory intent on studying his powers—and seeks refuge on the pleasure moon Persephone-9.
There, he joins the Cirque Kosmiqa, a circus that becomes his sanctuary.
However, his newfound peace is disrupted when crime lord Niko Dax discovers Jes's abilities and coerces him into performing illicit tasks, including espionage and demolition.
As Jes grapples with these moral dilemmas, he forms deep connections with his circus colleagues, leading to a collective effort to dismantle Dax's criminal empire.
Throughout his journey, Jes confronts themes of identity, consent, and belonging, all set against a richly imagined universe teeming with diverse alien species and cultures.
