The Screaming Void
In the cold vacuum of deep space, something ancient and hungry is waiting.
Captain Dale and the crew of the aging freighter Pater Noster are used to the long, lonely hauls between distant worlds. But when they pass a swirling, hellish gas cloud that seems to stare back, everything changes. One crewman steps outside for a routine spacewalk... and returns as something else entirely.
What begins as a bizarre self-sacrificial death spirals into unrelenting terror. A shape-shifting abomination spreads through the ship's corridors, turning friends into monsters and the crew against one another. Flesh twists and reforms. Howls echo through the vents. Trust evaporates as the thing learns to hide in plain sight-wearing familiar faces while it hunts the last survivors.
How many have been infected? Is the Pater Noster the epicenter of the outbreak? Have they been spreading this scourge as they travelled?The horror may not be new. Vague, terrifying warnings from humanity's first colonists spoke of inhuman creatures lurking near stellar anomalies-demons and eldritch abominations that defiled humanity and cursed the Creator. Most dismissed those old tales as superstition or scare tactics. Now, as the entity consumes and imitates its victims, the crew is left uncertain: is this a preternatural evil that has stalked mankind since the earliest days of expansion... or a nightmarish genetic experiment engineered by a shady Earth corporation?
With dwindling resources and paranoia rising, the captain must confront an inhuman plague that defies science, restore the thin walls that separates between humanity from oblivion, and face an impossible choice.A gripping blend of The Thing, Alien, and Among Us, The Screaming Void is a pulse-pounding space horror novel about isolation, infection, ancient secrets, and the screaming void that threatens to engulf us all.
Perfect for fans of claustrophobic sci-fi horror, body horror, shape-shifters, and interstellar nightmares where no one can hear you scream.
