After Dark #1

2010

In a world without a sun, a crew of jaded mercenaries guided by an amoral drifter, Colonel Brood, must travel into the dark places of the ruined planet on a journey to find a woman who might be able to save the world. However, questions about the very nature of their quest linger… Could the planet and its people already be ruined beyond salvation? This mysterious tale is deeply rooted in science fiction, exploring man's hidden demons and the passion for survival.

After the heart wrenching departure of the infected Jones, the futuristic Pequod is ready to move on into the darkest parts of Europe on their pilgrimage to find Angel. In between the blood-filled battles and the rising tensions of the crew, their journey brings them to Birdland, the home of grotesque, avian creatures unlike anything the crew has ever seen. But even as the pilgrims fight their way to Angel’s haven to convince her to save the world, Colonel Brood has his own orders to follow – orders that will change the direction of the next hope of the human race forever.

But when Angel finally takes her place as the paragon of the world, will she use her power to be its savior, or crush all those who oppose her?
