Raven Astray: The Conductor of Dragons

By: Christopher Moore

Narrated by: Liz May Brice

In the final installment of the Raven Astray trilogy, the fragile balance of interstellar power collapses as the Horub Empire consolidates control through propaganda, military force, and the strategic manipulation of emerging technologies. Admiral Jen Walker and her fractured fleet struggle to preserve the possibility of democratic reform while navigating a rapidly hardening authoritarian regime.

At the center of the conflict stands Yoon Ji, a young woman whose unique “harmonic” physiology allows her to perceive and manipulate gravitational and temporal fields. Through resonance, she wields gravity, time, and the vaporous entities known as War and Peace—forces capable of altering battles and reshaping space itself.

Yet each act of harmonic manipulation accelerates a catastrophic condition within her body. Yoon Ji is becoming a temporal anchor: her mass increases exponentially as she occupies overlapping points in time, threatening to collapse into singularity and destabilize surrounding spacetime.

What begins as a rebellion for political freedom transforms into a desperate race against physics as imperial forces tighten their grip and interstellar civil war looms.
