Dark matter constitutes the bulk of all matter in the known universe. Yet to this day, its true nature
remains one of science’s greatest mysteries. But what if dark matter actually is just ordinary matter
purposely hidden from our view? What if we are only allowed to see a small fraction of the stars in every
galaxy, because the vast majority of star systems in our own galaxy 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 interstellar 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 different
sides 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.
