Alone and galaxies away from Earth, the future is theirs to forge or fracture.The Bifrost was never meant to be. Rejected from the official mission to Janus, an Earth-like world, untouched by human hands, these queer idealists embark on a forbidden expedition. Their charge: to build a society from the ground up. No governments. No contact with Earth. As they contend with the raw wilderness of Janus and their own baggage, they must confront the worst aspects of their nature. The crew wrestles with what it means to be human and whether utopia is just a fool's dream. Part philosophical inquiry, part spacefaring odyssey, Though the Night May Be Dark is an exploration of community, survival, and the timely question: what kind of world do we want — and what are we willing to risk to achieve it?
