DARK
A science-fiction horror novella
Forty thousand souls asleep. One monster awake.
Dr Mara Voss expected to wake on a new world. Instead, she awakens aboard the colony ship Eidolon to silence, failing systems and an AI that refuses to tell her the truth.
The story
Something went wrong.
The colony ship Eidolon is drifting through endless darkness. Its lights are failing and critical systems are malfunctioning.
Forty thousand colonists remain trapped in cryosleep: defenceless, unaware and waiting.
Mara and a handful of survivors begin finding missing crew, conflicting records and impossible readings from outside the ship.
Then come signs that something else may already be aboard. Something intelligent. Something hostile. Something that knows exactly where they are.
As the truth emerges, the greatest threat may not be the darkness beyond the hull — but what came in from it.
“Forty thousand people are sleeping. Only a handful are awake. And something is hunting them.”
