Sentinels of the Galaxy marks Maria V. Snyder’s move into science fiction. Navigating the Stars (2018), Chasing the Shadows (2019), and Defending the Galaxy (2020) follow a teenager whose parents are archaeologists studying alien artifacts on distant planets.
When she discovers that the artifacts are more dangerous than anyone realized, the stakes become galactic. The trilogy brings Snyder’s YA sensibility and strong protagonist formula to a space-faring setting.
