A brutal fight for global domination.
A desperate race to save humanity.
One unlikely team fighting against extinction.

Fans of The Expanse will enjoy this gripping, edge-of-your-seat first book in the award winning SYNCORP Saga!

Where some see crisis, others see opportunity…

With a planetary disaster on the horizon, Colonel William Graves has been ordered on a bold and highly classified mission. Teamed with a brilliant billionaire, a lunar engineer, and a disgraced veteran, they must race against the clock to save humanity, or risk extinction.

But while some believe mankind’s future lies amongst the stars, others seek to pursue a different solution: the subjugation of life itself. And as tensions mount, pitting factions against each other, global disasters continue to ravage the planet and the team soon finds itself asking one very important question: Who can they really trust?

In an epic story of action, political intrigue, and betrayal, there’s opportunity among the chaos… and a clock ticking down to humanity’s final hour.

“…a superbly crafted, gripping story…” —Jason Anspach & Nick Cole, bestselling author team of Galaxy’s Edge

Winner of the 2010 Shirley Jackson Award, nine stories of cosmic horror from the heir apparent to Lovecraft’s throne. Laird Barron has emerged as one of the strongest voices in modern horror and dark fantasy fiction, building on the eldritch tradition pioneered by writers such as H. P. Lovecraft, Peter Straub, and Thomas Ligotti. His stories have garnered critical acclaim and have been reprinted in numerous year’s best anthologies and nominated for multiple awards, including the Crawford, International Horror Guild, Shirley Jackson, Theodore Sturgeon, and World Fantasy awards.

His debut collection, The Imago Sequence and Other Stories, was the inaugural winner of the Shirley Jackson Award. He returns with his second collection, Occultation. Pitting ordinary men and women against a carnivorous, chaotic cosmos, Occulation’s nine tales of terror (two published here for the first time) were nominated for just as many Shirley Jackson awards, winning for the novella “Mysterium Tremendum” and the collection as a whole. Featuring an introduction by Michael Shea, Occultation brings more of the spine-chillingly sublime cosmic horror Laird Barron’s fans have come to expect.
