Under the Dark (Dark Universe, #8) / Dark Universe (ePub)

Under the Dark is book eight in the Dark Universe setting by Jason Halstead

The war is over. The Kesari have been driven to the deepest and darkest recesses of the galaxy, but evil never quits. Constant vigilance is the mission of the Unified Intra-Species Task Force. Constant vigilance reinforced with overwhelming force and swift retribution gained by superior technology.

Amidst the chaos in the Milky Way everyone else wants to return to their version of normal. Trading, manufacturing, entertaining, stealing... everybody has a different idea of normal. For Amber Hanes, captain of the Uma, normal is struggling to meet the stiff contractual payments of the ship's owner while taking approved contracts. For Aden Garrett, captain of the Sentinel, normal is trying to forget what the Terran Navy did to him so he can live a good life with his wife and crew.

The paths of Amber and Aden are too intertwined with the war to escape unnoticed. They've been involved in too much and now that the Terran Corporatocracy has taken control of the Unified Intra-Species Task Force, they must each find their way to stay out of the fighting. The galaxy learned a lesson about letting one species have too much power... and now that the Terrans went from a primitive species to a dominant military force the rest of the Milky Way might just remind them of their place.
