In 2035, self-driving cars and AI assistants are part of everyday life. So are monsters. Most people don't know that. Jack Mudder does. He's a Duster - who kills the creatures that feed on the innocent. When his best friend disappears inside a locked‑down corporate continent, and his sister gets stranded in a remote region where an unexplainable war is brewing, Jack is pulled in two directions at once. A demon is hunting children in a small town, and a global conspiracy is about to erupt. Jack isn't a hero. He's a survivor who lost his parents young and raised his sister alone. He'll lie, cheat, and kill to protect the people he loves. But to save them, he'll have to confront a truth that could destroy everything - and embrace a darkness he can't afford to ignore. Some things are worth a little darkness. A Necessary Darkness - a gritty urban fantasy thriller where technology meets terror, and sometimes the only way to fight monsters is to embrace a little darkness of your own.

These stories are carried down ( or up ) through the ages, when these civilizations died and their planets evaporated, the tales were converted to atoms and neutrons, went through black holes and were eventually transmitted directly into my brain in order that I might retell them !!! This tale is dedicated to the memory of my big brother, Wayne. RIP dude.

In a galaxy ruled by a perfect system, nothing is supposed to be left to chance, especially not love. Talon is a weapon. Engineered, enhanced, and loyal to the war that shaped him, he's sent on a mission to capture a dangerous smuggler, Lyra. But when a dying space station forces them into an uneasy alliance, survival becomes more urgent than loyalty. Stranded in the silence of deep space, tension turns into curiosity, and curiosity into something neither of them was ever meant to feel. Because Lyra is hiding something. And what begins as a mission becomes a rebellion. What feels like love becomes a question. Was it ever real? Or just perfectly designed to feel that way? When the system tightens its grip and reality fractures, Talon and Lyra are forced into an impossible choice: Trust what they feel or accept that even their hearts may not belong to them. Because in the end, the cruelest truth isn't betrayal. It's uncertainty. And some questions don't just break hearts. They rewrite them.

Humanity has fled to the Nexus galaxy, where unlimited resources has helped them conquer the stars. But the Void followed them, thirsting to consume their consciousness. Rescued from a life of servitude, Aven Artorison has dedicated his life as a sky monk to defending the Nameless civilians from the Void. With no power of their own, the citizens of his nation, Nuveria, rely on the Aprori fighters in the sky, and the Echelon warriors in space. Aven dreams of one day being strong enough to join the elite Echelon fleets in battle, like the legendary soldiers who saved him. But when a disastrous attack tears away his sheltered way of life, Aven soon finds that the very elite faction he sought to join, are the same forces who mean to sacrifice his people to the Void for Ascension. Now, another attack looms. To defend the Nameless, Aven must ally with his fellow Aprori fighters across the galaxy, corrupt politicians, and mad warlords in space to defeat the Void, or the Nexus may not survive the next attack.
