book eight: Dark Triumph

At the crossroads of history a multi-world war festers…

FIFTY-TWO THOUSAND YEARS in Eorthe’s past, experiments with the science of magic and the magic of science resonate with the twenty-first century in such a way that new allies are gained. But at that nexus of history, the entire timeline is at risk of destruction in a temporal black hole. That far future is dark with corruption; a multi-world war foments between the Lunan Empire and Terrans returned from exile on Mars, who with a vengeance mean to take back their home planet and their old bases on Lunah. Meanwhile, back at the Berry Lake research station, the Hidden woman Huldra appears, in search of her lost daughters Mora and Katika. Unexpected companions arrive, including one familiar from a simulated world, and others accidentally from experimentation with the Oculi in Tempore, or Eyes in Time.

Enter a magical child, an emanation of an oversoul whose wise genius is unsurpassed, and the complex of elements grows to include an artificial man from a distant moon, who is in search of the love of his life he abandoned.

Dark Triumph is book two of the third trilogy, book eight in The Stars Hereafter Chronicles, a legend of courage, love, romance, mysticism and enlightenment as the dark past of a reluctant hero enables power but leads to increasingly dangerous crossroads on Eorthe and beyond.
