Myan Lami was built to be unbreakable—a biotic Special Agent of the Terran Federation, forged from self-replicating microchips and genetically loyal to his creators. But on the ice-covered world of Epsilon Indi A 1, he faces a mission that will test more than his strength.
Sent to investigate a vanished expedition, Lami stumbles into the path of the Minvali, a towering alien people with a complex society and a buried grudge. As he endures captivity, humiliation, and the slow unraveling of an interstellar mystery, he begins to question the Federation’s truth—and his own purpose within it.
Haunted by a past he cannot erase and drawn toward a future he may not understand, Lami must navigate a deadly terrain of cultural conflict, buried secrets, and choices no soldier was ever meant to make.

In a world where loyalty is programmed and justice is expendable, Choices of Steel asks what remains when loyalties break—and whether conscience can outweigh command.
