   Dark matter, the invisible substance that constitutes the bulk of all matter in the universe, remains
 
  one of science’s greatest mysteries. But what if it actually is nothing more than ordinary matter
   purposely hidden from our view? What if we are only allowed to see a small fraction of the stars in
   our galaxy, because the vast majority of star systems are teeming with aliens who wish to remain
   unseen?

   Marc Zemin, a brilliant student of astrophysics, is the first human to ever stumble upon this startling
   secret, when his experiments with wormhole travel cause aliens to land on Earth and whisk him
   away into space. To his astonishment, the aliens want his help in fighting a colossal galactic war
   that is rapidly spiraling out of control.  But as he struggles to survive from battle to battle across the
   farthest reaches of the galaxy, he begins to uncover a horrifying conspiracy at play, striving to keep
   the warring civilizations in continuous conflict with each other. A desperate race against time
 
  ensues, as he and a handful of newfound alien friends try to stop the war and confront this  
 
  mysterious, powerful force bent on destroying all life in the galaxy. But any hope of their success
   surprisingly appears to hinge on just one thing – whether or not Marc has the strength to overcome
   his own demons and face the shattering truth about who he really is.
