The war for humanity's soul isn't fought with weapons alone...

Six months into the Artemis War, the fledgling Terran Federation is under siege. Diplomats stall, warships circle, and the Solarian Union is prepared to crush Kendra Cassidy's rebellion—if they can decide whether she counts as human long enough to do it.

While Kendra fights back in courtrooms and council chambers, her wife Aiyana holds the line aboard the Enterprise, now the beating heart of the Federation's hopes for survival. As executive officer, she navigates hostile standoffs, high-risk missions, and the ever-present threat of betrayal from within.

But some battles require dirt under your boots and blood on your knuckles. Enter Mikki Stone—retired SEAL, full-time chaos engine, and the Federation's best chance of toppling the Solarian regime from inside. On Luna, Mikki plays a dangerous game of infiltration and sabotage, walking a razor-thin line between revolutionary and terrorist.

As war escalates across every front—legal, military, covert—Kendra and her allies must decide how far they're willing to go for freedom. Because in a galaxy where identity is weaponized, choosing to exist might be the most radical act of all.

Blending high-stakes space politics, military rebellion, found family, and fiercely human ideals, The Measure of Humanity explores what it takes to defy an empire—and build something better.
