"Another first-class example of the right sort of science fiction is Daniel F. Galouye's 'Dark Universe.'"--Richard Dawkins: By the Book, New York Times

"Along with Walter Miller, Jr's masterful Canticle for Leibowitz, Dark Universe ranks among the best post-apocalyptical books from the late 50s and early 60s."--Science Fiction and Other Suspect Ruminations

The classic tale of a post-apocalyptic world where humans have built a society in the dark underground.

The descendants of the survivors only remember the pre-apocalyptic world in old stories, legends and myths. Light, itself, is remembered as something holy, and Radiation is feared as the ultimate evil.

Jared is the son of the Prime Survivor, the leader of the Lower Level Clan. In a world of darkness and monsters both real and imagined, Jared embarks on a quest for Light. Little does he know just how dangerous his quest will turn out to be.
