In the far reaches of space, something stirs.
Deep in the caverns of Puerto Rico,
something answers.

About the Author
Nicolas Hornyak is an award-winning game designer and writer. Born in Brooklyn in 1993, he discovered the craft of fiction in middle school and went on to earn his bachelor's degree in creative writing from Purchase College, with concentrations in fiction and poetry, and a minor in screenwriting.
​
A proud and queer descendant of Puerto Rico, Nicolas Hornyak would go on to write his first books, Aimless Sky and The Phoenix Express, before designing Arecibo, a game supplement that won the Indie Groundbreaker Award for Best Setting. When he isn't writing, Nicolas can be found composing music, studying experience design, or playing video games.
