A robot yearns to remember. A thief struggles to forget. A galaxy on the verge of collapse.
On the fringe of a broken civilization, a robot awakens with no memories and only one directive: find his creator. But in the village of Korthe, Beetro finds only radioactive pestilence, famine, and Miree—a tormented thief with dreams of retiring after her final score. Meanwhile, the fiefdom is plunged further into chaos when a new warlord seizes control, recasting serfs as refugees and leaving derelict robot peasants in his wake. With a shared interest in survival, Beetro and Miree team up to pull off an impossible castle heist: steal a single flake of dark matter, the world’s most valuable and mysterious ore.
But as they trek through the feudal wasteland in search of answers, they realize the true extent of the chaos surrounding them: the stars are disappearing from the sky and the entire galaxy is unraveling. As he uncovers his origin, Beetro discovers he may be the key to the salvation of the cosmos—or its destruction. Time, space, and loyalty become relative as he learns the real reason he was created.
A mind-bending science fiction epic with the bones of a fantasy traveling quest, Dark Theory unfolds through a journey of betrayal, identity, and unlikely friendships in a world of darkness set at the edge of space and time.

MY REVIEW: 4.5 Stars
This book blew my mind!!
The author definitely knows how to write some damn good sci-fi!
I loved these characters! We have a few different people and ish that play very important parts in the book. The way they come together and weave into each other’s lives is so cool! And, the most important part is that I followed along with the book just fine. I usually get confused but I pretty much knew every crazy thing that was going on.
There are some gruesome parts but it’s still good. Miree in particular is a very strong female character. You don’t always like her but eventually……. and the stuff she goes through will make you cringe. I love the all of them. The majority of them have issues in one way or another but they have some messed up circumstances!
And the things that happen on the earth gives me the creeps as something crazy like that could really happen.
Anyhoo, I loved it and look forward to the next books!!
