Primal Eclipse is the first novel in the Peregrine Outpost series. Primal Eclipse is a post-apocalyptic, colonization adventure with memorable, flawed characters, unimaginable creatures, and turbo-paced, nerve-shredding thrills. Perfect for fans of Lost In Space, Interstellar, and Raised by Wolves.
Ember Steele only wanted to live a full life. That’s why she went into stasis, to wait for a cure for her terminal disease. Now she and five other people awaken in a spacecraft, far from Earth. Hundreds of years have passed. Everyone Ember knew is long dead. And what’s worse—far, far worse—humanity is all but extinct.
Ember and the others aren’t astronauts, scientists, or soldiers, yet they’ve been selected for a monumentally important mission. Why? Because they all have the same terminal condition, making them the only people who can survive in a faster-than-light needle ship.
Their mission: select a suitable terraformed planet for human civilization to start over.
The clock is ticking. With limited air and no food or water, this ragtag team must act fast or fail. They land on Tenoth, a seemingly hospitable world, but soon find themselves in a nightmare of deception and danger. Worst of all are the eclipses, when Tenoth’s moons obstruct its sun. For when the darkness comes, so comes death.

Here are a few of my favorite reviews of Primal Eclipse:
"This is the start of a great new series! I normally enjoy this author's work, but this series is a bit more 'sci-fi' than some of the others, which made it even better for me! Yet is still has Stan's trademark, his weird and wonderful animals in it."
- Jenny on Goodreads
"Primal Eclipse is an immersing page-turner with human connections. Like his other books, this one evokes one’s imagination and emotions. Smith’s resilient characters remind me that though we may sometimes start with nothing, we can always choose to dig deep and tackle another round."
- Love_Wags on Amazon
"Great adventure with plenty of action along with a good helping of humour. Definitely recommend another great story from Stan Smith."
- Ron on Goodreads
"Excellent start to a new Stan C. Smith sci fi adventure series! This latest series looks to be the purest sci fi yet from him. It involves traveling to other worlds, terraforming, advanced AI, robots, etc. While this book is definitely part of a series, and the story appears to be nowhere near complete, it ends on a satisfying note, making it clear there is more to come, yet not leaving the reader feeling unfulfilled by a book that ends on a cliffhanger."
