As this nightmare is released upon an unsuspecting universe, and life everywhere is plunged into chaos and insanity, Cal Harker finds himself caught up in a chain of events that will take him, his friends, and the others he meets along the way, upon a voyage of terrible discovery and into the midst of a fight against the malevolent forces responsible for what is happening. Set in a future where space travel is commonplace and mankind has turned its back on the myths and religions of older times, Darkness Unbound is the first in a series that chronicles the plight of the universe against the evils of ancient aeons
