About the Book

From Some Forgotten Age

A Storm of Evil Raged,

A Wind of Night has Come

And Swept Away the Sun....

When Virgil Deux loses his heart to the little alien diplomat marooned on his world, he never imagines she will lead him across the galaxy and into the maelstrom of political and mystical intrigues swirling at the end of the Second Galactic Age. An ancient god of Darkness has manipulated the great mortal empires of the galaxy to the brink of apocalypse, and only the Avatar of Light can prevent their ultimate annihilation.

However, Virgil discovers that instead of a god, the Light has chosen his own fragile soul as its champion, and has compelled him to embark on an odyssey that takes him from Twinsun IV's crystalline Imperial Citadel to Nema's sanguinous capitol of Enirum, from Sodome's great city-state of Port Royal to General Gondaga's flying war metropolis, Vampyr - and finally to the very heart of the galaxy and the legendary treasure planet of Aura. There, with Councilor Aurelia and Captain Coreandra Flint beside him, he must pit his love against a faceless storm of evil to save all loving souls.
