What if the sun died-and humanity's last hope lived in a fortress surrounded by unspeakable darkness?
In The Night Land, William Hope Hodgson envisions a future so distant that the earth has grown cold and lightless, with the sun extinguished and the sky forever black. Humanity's remnants dwell within a titanic metal pyramid known as the Last Redoubt, surrounded by strange forces and grotesque entities that haunt the darkness beyond.
One man receives a telepathic call from a woman in the now-doomed Lesser Redoubt-and sets out alone into the desolate horrorscape to find her. What follows is one of the most intense and atmospheric journeys in speculative fiction: a relentless trek through a haunted wasteland filled with watching eyes, lurking monsters, and ancient, malevolent forces.
