In ancient times, navigators had no idea what lay beyond the edges of their charts, so they simply wrote "Here be monsters." No one had been there, but everyone knew the myths of the perilous creatures that plundered the ships and fed on wayward travellers who ventured too far from home. In time, though, all the world was tamed, and the charts lost that mysterious edge--there were no more monsters. That was centuries ago.
Now, humanity travels the dark ocean of space, infinite in all directions. The monsters Out There aren't just creatures of myth -- we've really seen them. And they know where we live.
Terracide is the story of humanity's survival after the total loss of its homeworld in the far future, and its struggle to survive in a hostile universe. A few survivors are determined to find the culprits and avenge their loss. Others see an opportunity to settle old scores, now that Terra's peacekeepers are out of the way. Some would rather run and hide before whoever destroyed Terra comes to finish the job, and some people just never quit looking for ways to make a quick profit.Terracide and all other related names and material are © Grady Elliott.
