The Black Path

Coming soon from House of the Tiger!

Stanislaw Lem’s Solaris meets Liu Cixin’s The Dark Forest in The Black Path, a book which seamlessly blends a philosophical exploration of what it is to be human with the grim reality of the dark forces that may lay in wait for humanity in the dark depths of the universe.  

It should have been a routine mission. But it turns out to be anything but. 

Arjun Taranis, Chief Engineer of the Pizarro, is sent to the planet Keres to find out why the colony there has gone quiet. 

What he finds waiting for him shocks him to the very core of his being. All thirty colonists are missing, and, in their place, is a beautiful but highly charismatic woman who claims to be an alien probe. Worse still, Taranis has seen her before. But not in the real world.

Jo-sa has come with a mission of her own, to investigate and research humanity. As Taranis attempts to come to terms with her existence and tries to make sense of the connection that links the two of them, he finds himself faced with the most disturbing revelation imaginable. A revelation that heralds the end of the entire human race.

Coming soon to all book shops everywhere!
