Exodus is the first book in the Starsong Chronicles Series' Exodus Arc. The book begins in the year 2371 and follows the story of Damarien Tierney. Damarien tries to avenge the murder of his adoptive father and ends up being hunted by a powerful crime boss. In order to escape he is forced to stow away aboard the Exodus Project on a one-way trip to a far-distant world. Once there, he has to use all of his wits to survive in an alien environment against dangers that he never imagined.
Work on Exodus began in 2008. The process of writing the book was delayed for many years while the author built up the entire Starsong Universe from scratch. Once he felt that there was sufficient material to work with, he resumed writing.
