Salomé has uncovered a dark secret hidden in a distant part of the galaxy known as the Formidine Rift. The clues given in the original book are followed by the player base and dramatized here, based on events that actually took place within the Elite Dangerous MMO during 2016 – 2017. Premonition was commissioned directly due to the overwhelming fan response to the original novel, Reclamation, and continues the story of Kahina Tijani Loren, also known as the mysterious Salomé, as she becomes embroiled in a galaxy spanning conspiracy. With her birth right usurped by terrorists, her reputation and memories stolen, she embarks on a dangerous quest to restore her life and reclaim her home.Ĭommissioned by Frontier Developments themselves to expand on the narrative and lore of the Elite Dangerous game, Premonition charts actual player actions within the game over the period 3302 to 3303. Kahina is ripped away from her life of privilege in the high echelons of the Empire and cast adrift into a cut-throat universe of danger, pursued by bounty hunters and pirates, trying to find her way with help from a cast of traders and explorers, adopting the alter ego Salomé along the way.

Reclamation features an unlikely heroine, Lady Kahina Tijani Loren, the embittered third daughter of a despised Imperial Senator, himself guilty of ordering mass genocide of a planetary population. Reclamation hinted at in-game mysteries for players to discover, which ultimately led to a sequel, Premonition, charting their actions in the game in real-time.

Highly acclaimed by fans, Reclamation has become the most popular official Elite Dangerous novel, engendering the genesis of in-game factions, battles and player narrative based on its story, many of which continue to this day.

Published at the same time the game launched it served as not only an intro to the new game, but also provided continuity from the original Elite of 1984 and the subsequent sequels, Frontier Elite 2 (1993) and Frontier First Encounters (1995). The original Elite Dangerous novel, Reclamation, was written after a successful Kickstarter pledge when Elite Dangerous itself was being crowd-funded back in 2013.
