Enthrallment is special for paid subscribers. Ten thousand literary words of hard sci-fi, future worldbuilding, asteroid mining, and possibly the most jaded 19 year-old in deep space risking her life to find meaning in nothing. Below is the official blurb:

A Gritty Sci-Fi Thriller of Betrayal, Survival, and the Cost of Empire

For generations, the Anderson family has ruled the solar system’s mining operations with an iron grip, extracting precious metals and helium-3 from asteroids, moons, and dwarf planets. Their workers toil in the void, bound by century-long contracts, while Earth reaps the rewards of their labor,
unaware that human hands still fuel its utopia.

Honor Anderson is different.

A prodigy among deep-space miners, Honor feels the vibrations of failing machinery through her bare feet and navigates zero gravity like a second skin. But when a routine drill on Haumea strikes something unknown, a gravitational anomaly, a hollow thing lurking in the dark, she realizes the Andersons’ empire
is built on more than just ore.
