About the Series

A Universe Built Over a Decade

Sova's Legend began as a single question: what happens to the people who keep the universe running while everyone else argues about who should be in charge of it?

Ten years in the making, the trilogy spans three novels, three worlds, and one extraordinary crew whose story refuses to be forgotten. Backed by AIA-Studio — Creative Science Fiction Films — each book is produced with the same cinematic attention to detail you'd expect from a major release.

  • 3 full-length novels, 1,200+ pages total
  • Original cover art commissioned for each volume
  • Universe guide & lore appendix included
  • Available in digital (ePub/PDF) and print

FAQ

Questions answered

Still have questions? Reach us at hello@aiastudio.space — we reply within one business day.

What format are the books available in?
All tiers receive digital editions (ePub + PDF). The Navigator tier and above also includes a signed paperback set. The Captain and Legend tiers receive hardcover editions.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes — we ship worldwide. International shipping costs are calculated transparently at checkout after the campaign closes. No inflated handling fees.
Can I upgrade my pledge tier?
Yes. You can upgrade any time before the campaign closes by increasing your pledge amount on Kickstarter. Contact us if you need help with the process.
When will books and rewards ship?
Digital editions will be delivered within 30 days of the campaign closing. Physical rewards (paperbacks and hardcovers) are estimated to ship 6–9 months after the campaign ends.
Are all three books complete?
Yes. All three novels in the Sova's Legend trilogy are fully written and edited. We're funding production, artwork, printing, and distribution — not the writing itself.
What happens if a stretch goal unlocks after I pledge?
Stretch goals are automatic. Anything unlocked before the campaign ends is added to your reward for free — no action needed on your part.
How is AIA-Studio connected to the books?
AIA-Studio is the creative studio behind Sova's Legend. We handle all production — cover art, layout, print quality, and the expanded universe materials — to bring a cinematic standard to the books.
