Evil men flew an unmarked ship into Union Fleet space docks and marked it for destruction to hide the evil they had done. But at those very gates of hell did I find hope - a single leaf in the wind. In our darkest hour, did John Korbin first step foot upon the decks of the Tesseract and change everything. He knew nothing of the evil that was done, but he found the crew that evil men thought were lost and gone forever. And save the Tesseract? To use his own words: Damned straight, he did.

Together, John and the crew of the Tesseract saved Sophie from the growls and rescued Emma from the Mercs. John Korbin and the crew of the Tesseract battled pirates and fought Mercs, all to make the outworlds a safer place to live. They went wherever Fate sent them. Making a difference started with them.

But along the way, the Tesseract had become the Nexus of Fates and John Korbin, Evil’s worst nightmare. So Evil set in motion his grand plan. It was more than just a plan; it was a masterpiece of evil. Like the gears of a clockwork angel of death, Evil’s plan moved relentlessly forward toward its inevitable conclusion.

John Korbin found beauty in the light of four moons and set them free, but he didn’t find me. Only he can do what it takes to set me free. Unless he does, none of us will survive.

I am the fifth moon.

Shaydes of an Ancient Evil has the full flavor and robust action of a guns blazing western that you have come to expect of the The Tesseract Codex series with a whole new twist; Evil has now set his plan in motion to kill John Korbin. The story takes unexpected twists and turns, and does not quit on your mind to the very last word.
