Countless un-parallel universes intersect in a place where science and magic function perfectly.
An ultra-advanced species, the Common, governs this world and invites other advanced species to set up enclaves where the planet’s extraordinary properties draw an assortment of gods and demons like supernatural moths to a flame.
The first human allowed there, Professor David Goldberg, is secretly tasked by Earth’s governments to observe the Common.
But Goldberg’s mission might not be as secret as he thinks. Someone or something with unknown motivations sends truly terrifying monsters bent on taking him down.

Four decades before George Orwell wrote 1984, The Napoleon of Notting Hill defined the dystopian genre. One of the first dystopian comedies, instead of a dark vision of jackboots and surveillance states, G.K. Chesterton explores the question of what a society would look like if no one could take a joke.
When the ruthless Aliens attack the outer reaches of the Federation, Humankind is forced to retreat haphazardly from dozens of conquered systems.
The only chance to delay the advance of the enemy is to create hundreds of fake colonies. If that doesn’t work, the Fleet will be forced to face the ma’lahn in a series of open battles, which may lead to its annihilation.
Politicians, however, do not care about consequences. Their goal is to preserve power, even at the cost of billions of lives. The headquarters of the third metasector must meet the requirements of the Council on the one hand, and prevent the destruction of the only force that is able to defend Humankind on the other.
But this war has another—human and personal—dimension: Henryan Darski must fight to save the colonists that he left on Ulietta . . .
Edge of Extinction is book three in the Fields of Long-Forgotten Battles series.
