Fires of Hina by Brian N. Tissot

"Fires of Hina" is a powerful eco-spiritual science fiction novel that follows Lani, a passionate young marine ecologist haunted by the extinction of whales and the mysterious death of her cousin, Sage. Set in a future ravaged by climate collapse and corporate greed, Lani is driven by a sacred vow to protect the last great ocean creatures and uncover the truth behind their haunting songs. When Earth's most sacred alien world—Thalassa—is reopened to exploitation, she must confront her deepest fears, grief, and rage to become the planet's unlikely protector. Guided by indigenous wisdom, ancestral spirits, and the echoes of lost songs, Lani embarks on an interstellar journey to defend the Nesoi—sentient beings tied to the fate of both Earth and the stars. "Fires of Hina" is a soul-stirring call to honor the living Earth, listen to the quiet voices of the universe, and awaken the warrior within.
