Bernard Wilkerson's third installment of the Hrwang series hints at darker days ahead for humanity.The world promises to get darker. Precision asteroid attacks by the Hrwang devastate Earth’s leadership. Survivors in tsunami-wiped "sunny" California haven't seen the sun for days on end. Electricity and fuel are precious and scarce. No one on the surface of the planet can see just how bleak the full picture looks because they can't see into space.Hrwang commanders, orbiting in gargantuan ships, are preparing for a ground assault by awakening a massive army from its 2 1/2-year slumber through interstellar space.Two humans have interacted directly with the Hrwang without dying. Stanley Russell believes he can turn around the conflict after accepting an ambassadorship from the Hrwang commander. Russell's second-in-command, Irina Samovitch, clearly doesn't share his optimism or visions of glory. For now, both are headed back to Earth tasked with reaching the United Nations, where the Hrwang seem to be saying they were attacked.What do they mean by that, anyway? How could humans have been so stupid as to attack aliens who obviously have far better technology? Perhaps Russell and Samovitch will find some answers in New York. Maybe Eva Gilliam and Juan de la Serda will uncover some truth in California, where she captured video of alien aircraft appearing over an observatory. Gilliam clearly has a plan in mind. She won't go down without a fight, even if it's only a symbolic one. Bernard Wilkerson's third installment of the Hrwang series hints at darker days ahead for humanity.
