Books with title Elysium Fire

Elysium Fire is a smoldering tale of murderers, secret cultists, tampered memories, and unthinkable power, of bottomless corruption and overpowering idealism from the king of modern space opera. Ten thousand city-state habitats orbit the planet Yellowstone, forming a near-perfect democratic human paradise. But even utopia needs a police force. For the citizens of the Glitter Band that organization is Panoply, and the prefects are its operatives. Prefect Tom Dreyfus has a new emergency on his hands. Across the habitats and their hundred million citizens, people are dying suddenly and randomly, victims of a bizarre and unprecedented malfunction of their neural implants. And these "melters" leave no clues behind as to the cause of their deaths.... As panic rises in the populace, a charismatic figure is sowing insurrection, convincing a small but growing number of habitats to break away from the Glitter Band and form their own independent colonies.

What begins as a simple mission to recover lost comrades in the Martian desert quickly turns deadly when Tyke and the others find themselves stranded on the Red Planet, with only the slimmest of chances to make it home again. Indeed, after several members of the group are badly injured by attacks from soldiers under the command of Colonel Burns, the murderous dictator of the Martian colony, it begins to seem that all hope is lost. But as usual, things are not quite what they seem, and sometimes hope comes from the most unlikely of places. Because even though he doesn't know it yet, Tyke has a destiny to fulfill; one which has been hundreds of years in the making. If he has the courage to accept it.

Alacia Tremblay is a Starseed, also known as a Lightworker, a being who volunteered, before birth, to help humanity heal. The Anunnaki also known as Fallen Angels have come to earth to kill all Lightworkers to keep the planet engulfed in fear, and suppress the Lightworkers from assisting Mankind in the next stage of their evolution. They need to find the Lightworker who knows the location of the Elysium, the dwelling place of the holy ones after death so that they can become Gods. Meric Aircry is one of the Fallen Angels who was selected by God to become an Archangel but only if he helps Alacia in fulfilling her Starseed mission. To do that Meric must become a human and learn how to love all of humanity including Alacia. Will Meric follow through with his assignment to kill Alacia? Or will he betray the Fallen Angels to become an Archangel?
