'This is outstanding sci-fi . . . It delivers on every level' - Daily Mail
Live in hiding - or die for freedom.
Humanity welcomed the Olyix and their utopian technology. However, mankind was tricked, and now these visitors are extracting a terrible price. For two years, these visitors have laid siege to Earth - harvesting its people for their god. And while millions fled into space, others have continued to fight an unwinnable war.
As Earth's defeat draws near, a team attempts to infiltrate the Salvation of Life - the Olyix's arkship. If this succeeds, the group will travel countless lightyears to the enemy's hidden enclave. From there, they could reveal its location to allies in a future timeline. Yet in the far future, humanity is still hunted by its ancient adversary. And as forces battle in the cold reaches of space, hope seems distant indeed . . .
