VEILED ALLIANCES
a prequel novella to Saga of Seven Suns
by Kevin J. Anderson
It is a time of great beginnings. Set a century before the grand events of the Saga of Seven Suns, Veiled Alliances chronicles the origin of the green priests on Theroc, the first Roamer skymining operations on a gas-giant planet, the discovery of the Klikiss robots entombed in an abandoned alien city, the initial Ildiran expedition to Earth, the rescue of the generation ship Burton and the tragedy that leads to sinister breeding experiments.
Veiled Alliances is an excellent starting point for readers new to the Saga, as well as an unforgettable adventure for fans of the series.
BONUS: This edition also includes the complete script for the Wildstorm/DC Comics graphic novel of Veiled Alliances.

So, every one of these backstories will be like… five page long?
(It’s not only a sick burn for filers who attempted to read The Dark Between the Stars. That synopsis seriously promises way too much stuff to be thoroughly fleshed out in a single novella.)
I was thoroughly not impressed by The Dark Between the Stars, so I think I’ll pass on this.
That is a striking cover.
