Synopsis (Goodreads):
The Kordolians are loose on the asteroid mining station Fortuna Tau, and first-rank mechanic Jia Morgan has become caught up in the thick of things. Under the careful watch of these steely-eyed silver warriors, Jia and her team have been tasked with repairing the hull of the Kordolians’ Alpha-Class battle cruiser, Silence.Thoughts on Out of Darkness: Book 4 takes us back to the space station and all the insanity going on there as the Kordolians brood and glower while the Humans attempt to repair their ship. Just kidding, those big silver aliens don't ONLY brood and glower. They also kick some bug-alien booty when things get dicey.
The problem is, their alien technology is far, far beyond anything she’s seen before, and whatever they try to weld to Silence’s black hull just won’t stick.
When Jia goes in search of a tool that might actually penetrate the warship’s impossibly strong Callidum exterior, she find herself being aided by a most unlikely source. The hard-faced warrior who’s decided to accompany her walks on silent feet and carries a big, big gun. He’s equal parts scary and attractive, in an otherworldly sort of way.
But although Jia finds this Kordolian fascinating, she’s not even going to try and get close to him, because, well, he’s a freaking Kordolian, and Kordolians aren’t exactly known throughout the Nine Galaxies for being nice and warm and fuzzy.
Instead, she’s going to do her job and fix their warship, because that’s the only way these intimidating warriors are ever going to leave Fortuna Tau. Hopefully, they won’t break anything, or anyone, on the way out.
Oh, and there’s also the small matter of these flesh-eating insect-aliens called Xargek. Apparently, they bite.
Warning: This book is a science-fiction alien romance. It contains swearing, violence, sensual sex scenes and silver aliens with fangs. It's definitely recommended for readers aged 18 and over.
And, guys, THINGS DO GET DICEY.
As in, mercenaries are causing trouble, alien bugs are causing even more trouble--or maybe an equal amount, I don't know. THINGS HAPPEN. 'Splosions and acidic blood splatter type things. It's great.
Fortunately for Jia, Kalan, Tarak's second in command, takes a liking to her and she ends up with her very own Kordolian bodyguard. Seriously, it's fortunate because things go south pretty quickly and it's doubtful either she or any of the other humans would have survived if Kalan and his men hadn't stepped in to help. And the only reason Kalan intervenes is because Jia asks.
I've enjoyed this entire series, but I really liked the close, claustrophobic confines of the space station. Aliens that spew acidic gunk and a space station hanging precariously in the void are a rather volatile mix. In other words, I sort of loved it!
