Publisher Description
The fleet rushed to meet the invaders at the edge of the solar system upon their arrival. Every countermeasure was deployed to stall the enemy's advance—their forces held nothing back.
No soldier who fought on the battlefield today would ever return home.
With an unstoppable foe advancing on the Elakri homeworld, its leaders face an impossible choice: stand, fight and die, or risk everything on one daring, impossible chance to survive the enemy's onslaught. But when terrorists kidnap the scientist at the heart of their plan, a retired spy must confront the demons of his past in order to give his people that chance.
For readers of the AMARANTHE series, Extinguishing the Stars is a prequel to "The Universe Within," taking place some 9,000 years before the novel.
Customer Reviews
Very interesting premise
The short story manages to both engage the reader and construct another reality opening an entire new world for more stories. It will be very interesting to see how (.or if) it connects to her other story lines.
I received a copy of this story for free and am voluntarily leaving this review in exchange
Great short story
I was just checking to see if the next major book on Amaranthe is out and found a few short stories that I have not read. I am so glad I found them, they were great.
G.S. Jennsen is brilliant.
