About the book

Over a century after humanity’s crushing defeat in the war against the Skrads - a mysterious race that needs no oxygen, only light — the remnants of civilization cling to the edges of known space. Seth, a seasoned scout; Leo, an impulsive miner; Ivy, an eccentric engineer; and Victor, a cynical medic are drawn into events far beyond routine survival. Their journey through perilous underground worlds, abandoned stations, and hostile frontiers will uncover secrets that could alter the galaxy’s balance of power. In a universe where the memory of defeat still lingers and trust is a rare luxury, any discovery could be their last.

    Your Ukrainian language only resembles it... I would keep quiet if I weren’t using a better reader...

    Olena (Elena)Thank you for the warm feedback! I completely understand about horrors, I don’t watch or read them myself, and in my stories, I try not to describe such scenes in too much detail =)

    It's worth starting a new category - fantasy with elements of horror... :)

    Yar Ig=) I think there’s quite a lot of this, although I’m not a fan of horror, so I haven’t read much of it)

    Oh, and I forgot to add that at first I was scared of 500 pages, but in reality, I devoured it in a few days. Thanks again.

    Nicely written, but there are a lot of spelling mistakes. You need to proofread or run a spell check before finishing. Looking forward to the continuation.
