Beskrivning

The riveting and deeply immersive first installment in a new military sci-fi series—pitting amortal humans against a mystifying alien intelligence in a galaxy-spanning conflict—from New York Times bestselling author Ian Douglas.Centuries in the future, the Galactic Authority reigns over millions of advanced civilizations throughout the cosmos. From deep within the Galactic Core, the Authority’s principal Mind has won the allegiance of myriad nations, offering security, connection, and access to a network of interstellar Gates in exchange for compliance.While technological advancement has brought interstellar travel and life-extending procedures to Earth, humans are struggling to maintain their sovereignty and cultural identity. The Galactic Authority’s presence and technological prowess looms large, eliciting both awe and apprehension from a human society that finds itself at a crossroads: yield to the allure of advanced alien technologies, or preserve their autonomy in an increasingly fractious cosmic landscape.Naval captain Alexandra Morrigan has little trust for the Authority, and by all accounts, war is brewing. When the extrasolar colony at Sirius goes silent, suspicions arise that Galactic forces or their proxies are pressuring humankind into submission. To preserve any hope of Earth’s future, Morrigan and the forces she commands will do the unthinkable: travel through the Abyss gate, and make one last stand against the Galactic forces, whose powers may defy comprehension.

Recensioner i media

“This ambitious series opener from Douglas...throws military sci-fi tropes and time-honored conspiracy theories into a blender to create a bonkers alternate present...Douglas gleefully combines an eclectic mix of conspiracies, among them Roswell Greys, humanoid lizards, and space-faring Nazis, while launching his characters into intergalactic battles with the skillful combat sequences fans well expect.” — Publishers Weekly on Alien Secrets?“Douglas does a good job keeping the action rolling along. The rapid-fire pace is just what some readers are looking for...The end sets up the next adventure in a very good way...There is more action and adventure to come, and that is a good thing.” — SFRevu on Alien Secrets“The complexity of the world building is breathtaking, especially considering the scope and breadth of space and time explored…. [The] mind of Ian Douglas is obviously a fascinating place! Some of his creations are Stephen King horror-worthy, while others are both fascinatingly unique and quite unexpected…Douglas does a marvelous job at blending together the past, present, and even the future as he crafts a science fiction story very unlike any other I’ve read. If you love alien-themed science fiction, then Ian Douglas has a real treat in store for you!” — Fresh Fiction on Alien Secrets“The action is full-blooded and almost nonstop, yet the well-developed background is surprisingly rich and logical.” — Kirkus Reviews (starred review) on Earth Strike
