Beyond the confines of our small world, far from the glow of our star, lie a galaxy and universe much larger and more varied than anyone on Earth can possibly imagine. For the new NAC spacecraft Odyssey and her crew, the unimaginable facets of this untouched world are about to become reality. The Odyssey's maiden voyage is an epic adventure destined to make history.

Captain Eric Weston and his crew encounter horrors, wonders, monsters, and people; all of which will test their resolve, challenge their abilities, and put in sharp relief what is necessary to be a hero.

A first-rate military-science-fiction epic that combines old-school space opera and modern storytelling, Into the Black: Odyssey One is a riveting, exhilarating adventure with vivid details, rich mythology, and relentless pacing.

Evan Currie

Evan Currie’s writing journey is as expansive as the worlds he creates, bridging the vast reaches of space, ancient civilizations, and the intricate interplay of technology and culture. Born on June 3, 1976, in Canada, Currie has transformed his passion for storytelling into a diverse career that spans military science fiction, techno-thrillers, and alternate history.

His path to becoming a prolific author was far from conventional. Early on, Currie dabbled in fan fiction, a playground that allowed him to hone his craft and develop a deep understanding of character and narrative structure. This creative outlet eventually paved the way for his debut techno-thriller Thermals, self-published in 2011. It was this first book that signaled the beginning of a rich and varied portfolio of works.

With a background in computer science and an unconventional experience working in the local lobster industry, Currie brings a grounded, technical perspective to his stories. His books aren’t just about technology and futuristic warfare—they’re about how people respond to challenges, adapt to ever-changing landscapes, and thrive in the face of the unknown.

Despite a wide-ranging career, writing has always been Currie’s true passion, a medium through which he channels his boundless imagination and curiosity. His work has resonated with readers who enjoy intelligent world-building and complex, thought-provoking plots that don’t shy away from exploring humanity’s future or its past. Through it all, Currie remains dedicated to crafting stories that are both immersive and compelling, inviting readers to venture into new worlds and see the familiar through a fresh lens.
