For three hundred years, humanity has known peace.
Nations have become communities. Borders and armies have disappeared. The weapons that once threatened civilization have been dismantled and melted into monuments bearing two words: Never Again.
Humanity believed it had finally outgrown war.
Then the sky took fire.
When an alien force known as the Kheth descends upon Earth, a civilization built for cooperation suddenly faces an enemy it no longer knows how to fight. Communications collapse. Cities fall silent. The old knowledge of resistance survives only in fragments—in forgotten archives, buried installations, forbidden disciplines, and among people willing to remember what their peaceful world chose to forget.
From that memory rises the Ashen Guard.
Annaya Cross and those drawn into the resistance must rediscover more than weapons and military strategy. They must learn how to fight without allowing war to remake them into the very kind of civilization humanity once rejected.
As underground councils become battlefields and resistance spreads from the Earth to orbit, the struggle against the Kheth becomes something larger: a confrontation with obedience, power, sacrifice, trauma, memory, and the dangerous difference between defending freedom and learning to control others.
And beneath the conflict, something else is awakening.
Something in the fire is beginning to think.
When the Sky Took Fire: The Rise of the Ashen Guard is a science-fiction story of invasion and resistance, but also a story about what happens when a peaceful people are forced to recover the parts of themselves they believed civilization no longer needed—and must decide what deserves to survive when the world they built begins to burn.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
