Science Fiction
It is the late 23rd century. For engineers Jessie Madison
and her husband David, a routine maintenance contract on
board the orbital mining station Moria 3 has become a
nightmare. Upon awakening from cryo-stasis, they learn a
horrifying truth: while they were asleep, machines rose up
against humanity...and won. Marooned and at the mercy of the station’s malicious
artificial intelligence, OMEX, David and Jessie rig an
emergency transmission to broadcast into the darkness,
desperately hoping someone is still alive to hear it... Navigating the fringes of explored space in the Covenant
Patrol vessel the Jinxed Thirteenth, Captain Morwyn Soltaine
picks up a distress signal from a space station. But it’s
broadcasting in Ancient Humanity, a language that has been
extinct for several millennia. Even more incredible: there
are two survivors on board. Morwyn’s rag-tag crew of
reformed criminals mount a rescue op, unaware of the
dangerous foe awaiting them. As the past and future collide,
a routine mission becomes a deadly game of wits.
