[Encounters 01] • Encounters (The Spiral Slayers Book 1)

THE CYCLE OF UNIVERSES: big bang, expansion, big freeze, death and then, it starts over. Universe after universe, a cycle that has endured for time without end. But something has gone wrong--an increasing number of universes are ending prematurely--the cycle is becoming unstable.

AN ADVANCED SPECIES discovers what is happening and finds a way to send a warning forward through time into future universes. Eventually, in another universe, another advanced species finds the warning. They in turn send a desperate fix into the next universe--our universe.

IN SHIPS POWERED BY BLACK HOLES an immortal species as old as time is chased between the galactic super clusters and across the known universe. Forged in the fires of the early universe, their scientific journey completed, they know everything... including the great enigma...

Book One:

ON A PLANET CALLED AMULAR at the edge of The Great Coma Wall an alien race called the Loud make contact through Captain Maximus changing his life forever. The world shattering impact and political turmoil is only exceeded by what happens when the Loud bestow the gifts they bring.

THEN AN UNEXPECTED DISCOVERY: something has been coming across the visible universe since the dawn of time and now it is upon them. As the mind-boggling truth is uncovered, it becomes clear that this incredible force intends to destroy Amular while on its way to a far more devastating objective.

NEITHER THE LOUD NOR THE INHABITANTS can hope to stop this force and there is no negotiating, no surrender and nowhere to run or hide.
