And when an AI threat arises that could destroy everything the Pandominion has built, they'll eradicate it by whatever means necessary, no matter the cost to human life.

Scientist Hadiz Tambuwal is looking for a solution to her own Earth's environmental collapse when she stumbles across the secret of inter-dimensional travel. It could save everyone on her dying planet, but now she's walked into the middle of a war on a scale she never dreamed of.

And she needs to choose a side before it kills her.

I probably would have stopped reading halfway through and then a character I really like got introduced. And by the time it all wrapped up I realized I was hooked and was going to deal with it either way. It was good, very good. Can't wait to see where it goes.
