The Curanian Dominance

The Linda Eccles Series - Volume Three

By: Robert Woodard

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

They made peace with one alien species. Then they found a ship that changes everything.

On the Krack homeworld sits a vessel unlike anything humanity has encountered. Technology that shouldn't exist. Systems beyond comprehension. A ship waiting, as if it knew they would come.

Scientist Peggy Hopkins sees humanity's future. Captain Linda Eccles sees the danger.

Earth's orders are clear: Retrieve it. Study it. Control it.

Fatal mistake.

Because the Curanians were watching.

This brutal alien race, the same species Admiral Philip barely defeated before, has been lurking in Krack space, waiting for this exact moment. When the human science ship retrieves the mysterious vessel, the Curanians follow.

Straight to Rapatine.

Admiral Philip has minutes to prepare. His small fleet against their armada. He's fought them before. He knows their ruthlessness.

His odds aren't good.

Meanwhile, the alien ship refuses to cooperate.

Every scan fails. Every test hits walls. The technology sits silent, impenetrable, mocking every attempt to unlock its secrets.

Three species collide in a war none of them wanted.

• The Curanians — Ruthless, superior, unstoppable, driven by vengeance.
• The Kracks — Abandoned and desperate, fighting for survival against impossible odds.
• Humanity — Divided between Philip’s last stand at Rapatine and Linda’s blind gamble into the unknown.

What Makes This Unmissable:

• The mysterious ship — Technology beyond human imagination. Who built it and why?
• Philip’s impossible battle — Outgunned and outmatched, defending Rapatine at any cost.
• Linda’s boldest gamble — Piloting alien tech to meet creators no human has seen.
• The Curanian threat — Brutal. Relentless. Back for revenge.
• The Kracks abandoned — Fighting to survive without promised allies.
• Dual-front action — War at Rapatine while Linda races into the unknown.
• Mysteries that multiply — Every answer raises new questions.

Three Fronts. Three Species. One War That Could End Them All.

Admiral Philip fights the battle of his life at Rapatine. Linda flies deeper into unknown space with each passing moment. The Kracks face genocide. And the Curanians won't stop until they've dominated every species that dared stand against them.

Somewhere in the vast darkness, Linda is about to meet the architects of impossible technology and discover why they left their ship waiting for humanity to find.

When mystery becomes survival and every decision risks extinction, can humanity find answers before the Curanians destroy everything?

The Curanian Dominance is the explosive third book in the Linda Eccles Series, a character-driven space opera where peace with one species ignited war with another, where alien technology holds secrets that could save or doom civilizations, and where one captain's impossible journey might be humanity's last hope.

The ship holds the answers. The Curanians hold the guns. Time just ran out.
