The Reckoning

Craig A. Falconer

I thought I'd seen it all. Talk about your all-time wake-up calls … 
 
Earth is teeming with alien larvae. 
 
That reality has just crashed down on us like a ton of contaminated space rocks. 
 
Every time I close my eyes, I still see the huge spider-like monster rising up. 
 
I killed that one just in time, but we know that more could hatch at any moment. 
 
Even worse … we know that if any of them reach their final form, they'll be indestructible. 
 
Now, our only hope of saving Earth from this ticking time-bomb lies on the distant world of Eden. 
 
The problem? We have reason to think the natives engineered this stuff. 
 
If there was any other route forward, we'd be taking it. 
 
We wouldn't be blazing this uncharted path to potentially hostile territory. 
 
But with one card left to play in a game we can't afford to lose, I can't keep my mind from fixating on one unshakeable question: 
 
Are we racing towards Earth's salvation … or on a one-way trip to oblivion?

Mark Lausson has everything he thought he wanted: a coveted job at elite Sawyer College in Ohio. But at the start of his second year, stuck in a small town with deadlines piling up and paychecks falling short, Mark can already feel the fantasy crumbling. And then, a few weeks in, sophomore Tyler Cunningham shows up in class. In Tyler—confident, mysterious, and popular—Mark glimpses another way of being in the world.
