Outer Universe
With immense losses, Merlon and his crew have escaped the cannibals of Ivory, but now they are stuck in the wrong universe with no idea which way home lies.
There is no time for grieving when it's discovered Lucia's rough flight through the enormous asteroid field has resulted in most of their precious water storage spilling. It's evident Merlon isn't done fighting against his former addiction but in Outer Universe, he finds help from unexpected corners and makes some surprising discoveries.
Struggling to find a way back to Inner Universe before more of his crew are added to the death toll, new information about Lady Galantria's heritage reveal a threat that hadn't even entered Merlon's worst nightmares.
Will he succeed in returning to Amule, or will they be stuck in Outer Universe forever?
Outer Universe is the continuation and conclusion of Merlon's story in the Inner Universe series.
