Across the vast expanse of space and time lie the remnants of civilizations that reached for the stars-and vanished.
Silent cities carved into asteroids. Derelict megastructures drifting between galaxies. Temples buried beneath the red sands of dead worlds.
This book contains 13 bold tales of humanity's encounters with these cosmic ruins. Think Indiana Jones meets Arthur C. Clarke.
Follow determined xenoarchaeologists as they reconstruct the fall of an ancient alien civilization, or track seasoned salvage crews discovering terrible truths in abandoned waystations.
These stories capture the thrill of discovery while grappling with the humbling reality of our place in the cosmos.
