How can you stop something that killed a planet?

Sent to negotiate an alliance with the alien species known as the Occassi, the diplomats of the ES Votum awaken from their 135 year voyage to find a dead world and a silent universe. With 12,000 colonists still in hypersleep aboard their vessel, the team must embark on a new mission: to solve the mystery of the Occassi’s extinction and somehow make their world habitable again. As tenuous exploration quickly devolves into desperate survival, one man must achieve the impossible: to turn the husk of a dead world into the cradle for humanity’s future.

Tragic, philosophical, and deeply inspiring, Near Death Horizon takes readers through hell and back out again.

  • move into the world with the power, freedom, and joy that can only come from being your whole self.

Including poems on topics such as: sexual abuse, medical gas lighting, generational trauma, wrestling with a queer identity, christian patriarchy, deconstruction, female friendship, vocation, and contemplative spiritual practices—Daughter of Breath will help you name the aches of your own experience, so you can move towards greater freedom and wholeness as a beloved child of the Divine.
