In the Depths of Darkness
(2016)(The first book in the Depths of Darkness series)
A novel by Sean Fletcher
For fans of Brandon Sanderson's Skyward and Victoria Roth's Carve the Mark comes the first book in an epic science fantasy series about four dangerous outcasts up against a galaxy-full of enemies...
There are no choices when the Earth Alliance arrests you. Alyx Starburn knows this all too well.
Either he joins a new branch of the military, created to rehab convicts like him to defend Earth against alien threats, or he rots in a quarry on a backwater planet a thousand light-years away.
It isn't a hard decision.
Soon, he's teamed up with three other outcasts: Killian, calm under fire, but haunted by his past; Vaness, an icy-eyed killer who'd just as soon shoot you than smile; and Jess, alluring, friendly, with a roundhouse kick as deadly as the secrets she carries.
But they have all been deceived.
Without warning, the group is thrown into a galaxy far deadlier than they could have ever imagined. One where alliances are built on lies, secrets hunt you from the shadows, and those you trust the most could actually be the greatest enemy of all...
An epic science fantasy full of pulse-pounding action, a star-crossed romance, and galaxy-sweeping adventure. Perfect for anyone looking for incredible worlds and characters to get lost in!
This is Space Opera in all its glory. Things go boom. Humans meet aliens (sometimes to humorous effect). There's a little romance and a lot of adventure.

This is one for lovers of dystopian fiction and the sci-fi addicts alike. I looked forward to reading it in every spare moment and it certainly wasn't easy to put down when I actually needed to get some work done!

I was blown away by this book. It is a great story but it was the characters that grabbed me and wouldn't let me go. Their interactions with one another and with the people around them will keep you on the edge of your seat. If you like space fantasy with lots of action you will love this book
