Twilight of the Empire seriesbook 2 of 3Next:Hellworld(1993) →

The author of Hawk and Fisher continues the danger begun in Mistworld. A mining colony on the distant planet Ghostworld has broken contact with the Empire. All transmissions are dead, like the planet itself. Captain John Silence leads an investigation to discover the cause—and what he finds will forever alter the meaning of life . . . and death.
