- Captain Ronaldo Aldo has committed an unforgivable crime. He will ask for forgiveness all the same: from you, from God, even from himself.
- Connected by ansible, humanity has spread across galaxies and fought a war against an enemy that remains a mystery. At the edge of human space sits the Citadel—a relic of the war and a listening station for the enemy’s return. For a young Ensign Aldo, fresh from the academy and newly cloned across the ansible line, it’s a prison from which he may never escape.
- Deplorable work conditions and deafening silence from the blackness of space have left morale on the station low and tensions high. Aldo’s only hope of transcending his station, and cloning a piece of his soul somewhere new is both his triumph and his terrible crime.
- The Fortress at the End of Time is a new science fiction novel from Joe M. McDermott.
- At the Publisher’s request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

“Joe McDermott brings his terrific prose to a dark tale of space exploration. This is a space opera that is more Heart of Darkness than Star Wars or Star Trek. It’s dark, it’s grim, and it’s beautifully written. If you are a fan of McDermott’s work, you will be rewarded with this one.” By Patrice E. Sarath
“Could you please tell me why I cannot actually read this book? I cannot get past this scene and I will not review something I have not read.” By joseph sellers
