Into Darkness is the fifth episode in Terry Goodkind's new serial novel, The Children of D'Hara. Told in irresistibly intense installments, this is the story of a world confronted by an apocalyptic nightmare. The insatiable hunger of Golden Goddess....

They stop you dead with a knot of unexpected terror in the pit of your stomach. I think that the star shift has brought us closer to their realm so that they now have the power to step into our world and hurt us."

It will take all their skills to close on their quarry, but do any of them understand the true power of a Witch's Oath?

You'd think Captain Ry Devans was a hero when he jumpstarted the cores of Mars, giving the previously dormant planet a fresh start at harboring life. But he's also the host of a life-saving alien microbe, and the most wanted man within 33 million miles - courtesy of the terrorist global juggernaut the Earth First Faction, and its sociopathic agent Paton Schiflet.

It'll change history. So will the strands of carbon-based Martian cells that have hitched a ride on the ship. Dr. Karen Wagner knows the microbes' resistance to virus is incredible. It's the unknowable that's dicey. Her orders: blow them into space. But orders can be undermined.
