Description
The Mercy of Gods is a spectacular new space opera that sees humanity fighting for its survival in a war as old as the universe itself. The Carryx, a part-empire, part-hive, has waged wars of conquest for centuries, destroying or enslaving species across the galaxy in its conflict with an ancient and deathless enemy.
When the Carryx descend on the isolated world of Anjiin, the human population is abased, slaughtered, and put in chains. The best and brightest are abducted, taken to the Carryx world-palace to join prisoners from a thousand other species. Dafyd Alkhor, an assistant to a prestigious scientist, is captured along with his team. His peculiar insight and skills will be the key to seeing past their captors' terrifying agenda.
Swept up in a conflict beyond his control and vaster than his imagination, Dafyd is poised to become humanity's champion - and its betrayer. This is where his story begins, marking the start of something truly epic.
