This is the first book in a series of short stories detailing the main characters of my upcoming novel, The Void. It details the beginnings of a revolutionary group of separatists who rise against the tyrannical Intergalactic Council for Colonization of Planets (The ICCP).

The first story in the series looks at a pivotal point of Captain Mark Davis's story as he and his people fight for survival. Whilst raiding a Council convoy on the plains of Terra Nova, Mark and the raiding party discover the dark secret that the ICCP will stop at nothing to protect. This is the final straw. Prepare for war.

I hope you enjoy the short story and look forward to reading your comments.
