Set in an alternate history where first contact with aliens has already happened in secret, Axiom’s End follows Cora Sabino, a young woman who stumbles upon classified information about extraterrestrial life. As she uncovers hidden truths about the government’s dealings with these beings, she becomes entangled in an interstellar conflict that threatens both humanity and the alien race known as the Amnion. Blending political intrigue with a deeply personal character-driven narrative, Axiom’s End is a fresh take on first-contact sci-fi, reminiscent of Arrival and The X-Files. Reviews "A brilliant first-contact novel that balances grand sci-fi ideas with a deeply human story. Cora is a fantastic protagonist—flawed, complex, and relatable." "Ellis builds tension expertly, making the political and personal stakes feel incredibly high. The world-building is immersive, and the alien culture is refreshingly different." "Axiom’s End isn’t just about aliens—it’s about communication, understanding, and what it means to be human. A deeply thought-provoking read that lingers long after you finish."
