For those who came in late... Taken from Earth in 1801, Jeremiah Talon found himself thrust into the middle of a galactic struggle between the forces of the Hy'dirian Citadel and a small but determined group of races choosing to be free. Originally captured by the Citadel because they believed that he harbored secrets, Jeremiah escaped and was befriended by Leax Havoc, a being descended from ancient ship builders, who quickly becomes Jeremiah's greatest ally and greatest friend. Together, Jeremiah and Leax began to build a fighting force. When they discover plans of a powerful warship thought lost, they risk all to rescue rebel prisoners on the planet Cassess O'Learvs. Home to a proud race of scholars, who were forced to become fierce warriors, fighting a desperate war in an attempt to rid their world of the Hy'dirian scourge. With new allies including brother and sister, Rom and Da'ren Til'nosh - Jeremiah moves forward with his plan to construct his warship and destroy the Citadel at any cost. Hunted by the relentless forces of the Citadel, Jeremiah leads his reckless but determined band of fighters to the planet Aqualon, a dead world, once home to powerful war-like beings. There Jeremiah and his team are pitted against the planet's dark and foreboding custodian who forbids them from learning the secrets of the planet and sentences them to an eternity of madness. Now with the pieces in place, Jeremiah takes the fight to the Hy'dirian Citadel itself, but along the way he discovers things he never foresaw and is placed in a predicament that could forever change his life. "The Long Twilight" is the fourth book in the successful Talon's Epic series. The series has been compared by many to the pulp hero, John Carter of Mars and Author Charles F. Millhouse weaves many of those classic influences into his storytelling to bring Jeremiah's adventures to life.
