Dark Fate: Book 23 - Exchange Program

Dark Fate #23

by Stuart Grosse

With the 'unpleasantness' with the Russians settled for the moment, the Ceresan Empire now turns its attention to other affairs. Namely, the exchange program they had worked out with the Iscand Clan of the Ouran Huntworlds. Ceresan Marines and Special Forces travel to the Huntworlds while several hunters come to Earth to learn the ways of the Empire's troops. However, not everyone on the exchange is a warrior, which opens up intriguing new possibilities for everyone involved.

About the author

I'm a rookie author, looking to write stories that I enjoy writing. Not gonna get awards, but honestly, I'm happy with each and every person that reads my work.

Stuart is a sci-fi and anime geek, who dabbles in tabletop and video gaming. He enjoys cosplaying and has gone to DragonCon annually since 2009. Frozen Soul is his first book.

It is a sad, sad day when you finally break down and realize that you will never have the life you wanted, never do the things you wished to do, and never see the things you wanted to see. All because of a stupid lack of lightsabers.

I was a 26 y/o college student at Armstrong Atlantic State University, as a theater major. Went to school for a while before, dropped out, tried to go back, dropped out.. Not much to say other than the fact that I'm a laid back guy, and the only drama I like is the kind that's on the stage.

If I act like an idiot, or do anything to offend you, chances are it is not intentional, and I'm being oblivious. In that case, hit me upside the head, and tell me, because I don't catch subtle hints.

I remember when this author put our a large story in small sections, book by book. Now it's a small, in fact it's tiny, book by book. Without any cohesive story. You can tell it has no ending. It's just a day to day

Half the pages aren't story

I felt kind of cheated when I reached the 55% mark of the book and the Epilogue was already over while everything after was padding. I have enjoyed the story to date but like I said, I felt cheated.

I love the story and chatroom at the beginning, but having a third of the content as character summaries and stats at the end seems like padding page count.

good book

A really good book. Cannot wait for the next one in the series. I’m looking forward to seeing how the aliens deal with starvation
