Vakov Fukasawa is a Reaper. An elite soldier injected with a dangerous drug called stormtech: the DNA of a genocidal alien race, the Shenoi. It makes him stronger, faster, more aggressive.
At a price. A price that, if the House of Suns cult and the dangerous Shenoi alien race behind it, isn't stopped, all of humanity will have to pay . .

Recenzii
Szal does plenty to cement The Common as a supremely solid Sci Fi series that doesn't hold back
Well and truly worth the wait. Everything gets bigger and badder. The action is pushed to new heights. And yet the story remains grounded and focused on the same character, the same journey, the same struggle. This really was an ideal culmination of everything that had been set up before
Descriere
"Cutting edge action space opera, mixing lightning pace with grand storytelling" - Adrian Tchaikovsky, Arthur C. Clarke and Hugo Award-winning author of CHILDREN OF TIME
Vakov Fukasawa is trapped.
Captured by his ruthless and cruel enemies, the House of Suns, he has been broken in body and mind, tormented until he is something less than human. And yet, Vakov and his brother Artyom are the Common's last hope.
The war against the Suns has grown to swallow the galaxy. Entire systems rattle with violence. Planets are burning. Species are hunted to extinction. And now that the genocidal alien Shenoi have been successfully summoned, billions of lives are staring into the abyss.
To save his friends and his home, Vakov will need to work with his brother to build a great intergalactic army. He will need to become the hero, the legend, his people believe him to be. He will need to draw on his every last ounce of courage to gain the loyalty and fury required to survive. He will need to become The Black Wolf.
But is Vakov willing to pay the price that victory demands?
