In the follow-up to Lightless and Supernova, C. A. Higgins again fuses science fiction, suspense, and drama to tell the story of a most unlikely heroine- Ananke, once a military spacecraft, now a sentient artificial intelligence. Ananke may have the powers of a god, but she is consumed by a very human longing- to know her creators.

"Radiate will take you to the corners of space you've never even
dreamed of going and beyond."--Bustle "Gripping . . . This sci-fi
universe [is] utterly believable, while metaphor and allegory
enrich the characters."--New York Daily News "A compelling
emotional tale about two people trying to save each other from a
disaster of their own making."--Kirkus Reviews The Lightless
Trilogy is "a perfect sci-fi entry point that matches a rich,
character-driven story with fundamental questions about who we are
and why we're here."--Los Angeles Times
Praise for C. A. Higgins's Lightless
"[A] measured, lovely science-fiction debut . . . contained,
disciplined, tense . . . The plot is compulsive. . . . Lightless is
the first of a planned series, and you can't help looking forward
to learning what's next."--The New York Times
"Absolutely brilliant . . . This is science fiction as it is meant
to be done: scientific concepts wedded to and built upon human
ideals."--Seanan McGuire, New York Times bestselling author of the
October Daye series "The stakes in this story are high--life and
death, rebellion and betrayal--and debut novelist Higgins
continually ratchets up the tension. . . . A suspenseful, emotional
story that asks plenty of big questions about identity and freedom,
this is a debut not to be missed."--Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
