A teen student in a high-tech military academy fights evil & corruption to save his friends in this final entry of a science fiction adventure trilogy.
You’ve achieved the impossible. You’ve broken all boundaries.

But they soon discover troubling changes: the Spire is under new military control and cadets have suspicious neural processors, the first step in a plan with horrifying worldwide ramifications, and Tom is desperate to stop it. When the enemy comes for Tom, how much can he endure in the battle to save himself? And as the odds of success slip from his grip, is it even worth the fight?
In this exhilarating, explosive, and heartbreaking conclusion to the Insignia trilogy, Catalyst brings Tom and his intelligent, passionate, and brave young friends stunning tests and dangerous confrontations, and through to an impossible future they could never have predicted.
