Synopsis
Possessed of an unnatural and legendary hunger, the Reapers have come to Earth to establish a New Order built on the harvesting of enslaved human souls. They rule the planet. They thrive on the scent of fear. And if it is night, as sure as darkness, they will come. In a valiant rebellion against a half century of occupation by the Kurians, the newly formed Texas Republic and Ozark Free Territory have dealt the vampiric aliens their first major defeat. Resistance member David Valentine is revered as a hero for his part in fighting to regain Earth's freedom. But a dangerous enemy within his own ranks soon has Valentine facing charges for his handling of the Quisling prisoners - humans who have become pawns of the Kurians in order to survive. When former Quisling - and now loyal freedom fighter - William Post is badly wounded, he asks Valentine to find his wife, who has vanished into the darkness of the Kurian Order. With the help of old friends and new allies, Valentine traces her to a mysterious, heavily guarded compound in Ohio. And what Valentine finds within will shake his sanity to its very core... Bonus Audio: Includes an exclusive introduction by author E.E. Knight.

From Booklist
David Valentine, already a hero for his part in the uprising at Little Rock, plays the hero again in a major victory launched from the stronghold of Love Field in Fort Worth, Texas. Enlisted by an old friend and former Quisling to search for his wife, Valentine starts asking difficult questions. Before he can follow the tenuous leads on her fate, he is arrested for his treatment of the Quislings--Kurian collaborators--back in Little Rock. Finding himself a pawn in strategic negotiations between his commanders and the Quislings out west, he escapes, thanks to old friends, from the vagaries of politics and continues his quest north into the Kurian Order, that is, through Kentucky and into Ohio. He finally finds Gail Post in a mysterious, heavily guarded compound, in which he also discovers a secret that will shatter the foundations of his cause. Knight gives us a thrill ride through a world ruled by the vampiric Kurians and filled with engaging characters and grand schemes, and promises more to come. Regina Schroeder
