Crack open 'The Cipher I' if you've got nothing better to do than plunge headfirst into a trilogy that's as dark as the void itself. This ain't your average sci-fi fluff. We're talking about a universe that's bleak, where the so-called mysteries are just accidents waiting to happen, dragging you through space's underbelly. Expect no heroes, just a bunch of lost souls navigating crap they barely understand, in a story that might save humanity or just screw it over further. So, if you're into tales that wander the thin line between genius and insanity, wrapped in a cosmic shroud of 'what the hell is going on', this mess is for you. Just a heads-up: it's a trip through the dark, no light at the end of this tunnel. Welcome to 'The Cipher I'. Or don't. Your call.
