Incursion (The Supernova Cycle Book 1) Kindle Edition
A nearby supernova...and an impending first contact...will change humanity forever.
From the multiple USA Today bestselling author of Accord of Honor, Ad Astra, and more than sixty other books, and debut author Elizabeth McLaughlin comes a spellbinding sci-fi thriller about two people's desperate struggle to save humanity from extinction.
In the near future, a supernova erupts unexpectedly in a nearby star. There was no warning, no evidence that the star could ignite in such a way. Humanity stands on the brink of extinction as Earth is bombarded with particles from the stellar explosion, wreaking havoc.
An alien ship has arrived near Earth's moon only hours before light from the supernova. Have they come to help, or are they mortal enemies who plan to take advantage of the supernova's EMP to stage an invasion?
Doctor Alexandra King never knew that the paper she once wrote about theoretical xeno-psychology would lead the US government to consider her their foremost expert on the subject. Ace pilot David Jackson has been assigned a mission which might save humanity - or doom it - and he won't know which until after he's done the job.
Join them as they struggle to make sense of a changed world and do whatever it takes to ensure the human race has a shot at surviving the Supernova Cycle!

About the authors
USA Today bestselling author Kevin McLaughlin has written more than three dozen science fiction and fantasy novels, along with more short stories than he can easily count. Kevin can be found most days in downtown Boston, working on the next novel. His bestselling Blackwell Magic fantasy series, Accord science fiction series, Valhalla Online LitRPG series, and the fan-favorite Starship Satori series are ongoing.
When she's not playing pirate aboard tall ships or hunting down the best place to grab ramen in whichever country she's found herself in, Liz McLaughlin can be found at her keyboard, bringing to life science fiction stories to change the world. A lifelong avid reader and winner of her seventh grade Young Authors contest (thanks Mom and Dad!), Liz broke into writing in search of a way to bring diversity and representation to science fiction and beyond. Her stories seek to change the genre through normalizing people of color and LGBTQIA+ as participants in the futuristic epics we all know and love.

A page turner filled with the best and worst of humanity. The aliens are mirrors of humanity and refreshing in their familiarity.
The novel could use a closer proofreading in a few places. Those slips were distracting and a pity in such an enjoyable experience.
I can't wait to read the next book in this series.
The story is solid with great characters that form a solid backbone through the book, and the “two sides” that the book is written from is clever and occasionally makes you consider things from a different point of view.
Before I realised it, I was 90% through and reaching the culmination of the first part. Diving straight into book 2!
The story itself, once you get past the ‘all women are great, good, kind and level headed and all men are jar-head Neanderthals’ style is pretty good.
