It’s 1989: Two astronauts become the first humans to walk on the Moon. Then the world goes silent.

Commander Finn Strause and Laura Fraser were meant to plant a flag and come home heroes. Instead, they find something waiting in the dust, something that shouldn’t exist, and the journey home becomes a journey they were never prepared for.

Something is coming for everyone. Not a war. Not a weapon. An ending. And an unlikely crew is tasked with stopping it, helped by a robot named Lumo, who holds answers they can’t yet fathom.

From a quiet base in the Karoo to the surface of Mars, from forgotten corners of history to the edge of everything, Not Hollow is a story about the people we lose, the people we find again, and a question older than the stars: Is it hollow?
