As a truck driver, Max Tyco spends more days on the road than his home. Events transpire that lead him on an adventure of a lifetime. Thoughts of traveling through space, starships, alien monsters, and blasters have all been daydreams-until now.

The Rowki is a fraternity of intergalactic guardians tasked with keeping the balance between the Light and the Darkness. A call for help from a small, primitive planet central to the oldest known galaxy uncovers an ancient secret that could mean the reawakening of an insidious epoch.

Chosen for the depth of his potential, Max must commit to the Rowki or decide to return home and forget he ever knew the truth. But the truth is out there and more horrifying than he ever expected.
