Blood of the Cosmos Book

The galaxy is a graveyard, and Drex is its premier scavenger.​Captain Drex and the ragtag crew of the Vultures' Grace have made a living by stealing from the worst corners of the universe. But their latest "e;liberation"e;—a mysterious, pulsing black cube—has brought a Sector 7 pirate frigate screaming out of FTL behind them. Outgunned and venting oxygen, they are forced into a suicidal crash-landing on the frozen, war-torn world of Xyerces.​They thought the crash would be their biggest problem. They were wrong.​Xyerces is a planet haunted by the Blood Legionnaires—a literal army of the undead driven by a hive-mind virus—and a spectral tyrant known as Meskil. As a 72-hour "e;Longest Night"e; falls over the planet, Drex's crew must forge an uneasy alliance with Commander Kaelin Vex and her ragged band of survivors.​To escape, they must fight through a landscape of "e;Bear-Pythons"e; and shadow-corrupted soldiers to reclaim the skies. But the cube Drex stole holds a secret far greater than mere credits: the coordinates to the galaxy's last untouched paradise. In a universe governed by greed and rot, Drex must decide if he's still the thief who ran away, or the leader who will hold the line.​The darkness is an equalizer. But on Xyerces, the dark is hungry.
