Before legally changing his name, Simon Hawke wrote as Nicholas Yermakov. This new edition of FALL INTO DARKNESS is back in print after over 30 years. Novi’kavkaz, an Earth colony, lost contact with its home planet when ships ceased to arrive without explanation. As time passed, the society stagnated, leading to a regression in technological progress over two millennia. By then, even the planet's history had faded, leaving behind remnants of a once-advanced civilization. The few surviving artifacts were mostly inoperative, shrouded in mystery. Novi’kavkaz’s culture had begun to decay long before the machines failed or the ships stopped coming. After two thousand years, society was split into an upper and lower class: the rulers and the ruled. Among them were the Z’kazan, a warrior class serving the indulgent nobility while enforcing order among the working class, bound by a strict code of honor. A significant breach of this code triggers a series of events that alters the destinies of three young A’drei: the conflicted prince who reluctantly faces his royal fate, R’uslahn, the Z’kazan son consumed by an unquenchable thirst for vengeance, and his younger brother M’ikhail, who yearns for elusive peace. Their intertwined fates begin with the casting of a gauntlet.
