The City of Second Chances

They said Sierra Nova rose from the ashes of a world that collapsed under its own weight. The truth was darker. The world didn't fall. It was sold.

Corporations rebuilt civilization into towering megacities while automation pushed millions of people into the shadows. Down in Lowside, mechanics, hackers, street kids, and anyone else the new world had stopped needing learned how to survive.

One of them was a girl named Jinki.

A.J. McCafferey

A.J. McCafferey has been a science-fiction junkie since 1977, when a kid in a movie theater watched the opening crawl of Star Wars and never quite recovered.

Echoes in the Aether began as fan fiction in someone else's universe before growing into Sierra Nova, Jinki, and a world of its own.

Music That Inspired Sierra Nova

Here is the music that helped inspire me to create the world of Sierra Nova. I grabbed some of my favorite tracks that set the mood of Jinki's Sierra Nova while the stories were taking shape.

There Is More Coming

Jinki is only the beginning. More stories are coming from the Echoes in the Aether series. Each book reveals more people and their stories in the darkness of a world that doesn't care about the people living in it. Come back to Sierra Nova and the rest of the world and learn how the survivors of the streets beat the odds stacked against them.
