Dropping Into Darkness: The Illyrian Voyages, Book 1

By Peter Staadecker

Book 1 of one of the most original sci-fi/fantasy series ever.

Sal has escaped an assassination attempt, but now he's on a journey that will likely kill him anyway, accompanying two monks with a violent past.

An ocean way, Nyx is on the run, carrying a vital package that might make all the difference for life on earth. Her pursuers are closing in, and winter snows are blocking her way forward.

Welcome to a new Dark Age, led by a ruthless duke and some very strange cults. The Monks of St. Bacchan brew wine with unpredictable effects; the Monks of Han-Bu are trying to destroy the world ... again; the Tectonic Monks want to save it, along with some very odd endangered species.

"Staadecker delivers a rich world of fantasy, hard science, satire, outrageous puns and wild adventure."

For fans of Terry Pratchett, Neil Gaiman and JK Rowling and for all ages 13 to 113.
