For five hundred years human exploration of space has gone largely unchallenged. Now, deep in the ocean beneath the icy crust of Jupiter's moon Europa, something is stirring...a power both ancient and wholly alien, moving in the dark places. It's power is unimaginable, its rage inexhaustible and its goal clear; to eradicate humanity. Join six of the Dryden Experiment's premier authors as they weave tales from humanity's darkest hour. What will become of the creatures from Sol, faced with the Rise of the Europan?
