Evenson, follows the Black Marker threat prior to the events of <em>Dead Space.</em><br /><br />According to the PR, <em>Catalyst</em> takes place "three hundred years in the future," or two hundred years before the incident on the USG Ishimura in <em>Dead Space</em>, which occurs in 2507.<br /><br />This is the second Dead Space novel by Evenson, who wrote <em>Dead Space: Martyr</em> back in 2010 and covered the origins of the Church of Unitology and the "Black Marker." <em>Catalyst</em> will be available on October 2, 2012.<p><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2012/06/18/dead-space-catalyst-prequel-novel-available-this-autumn/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Dead Space: Catalyst prequel novel available this autumn</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2012/06/18/dead-space-catalyst-prequel-novel-available-this-autumn/">Dead Space: Catalyst prequel novel available this autumn</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Mon, 18 Jun 2012 21:30:00 EST.
