Více o knize

In his acclaimed military science fiction debut series, Dave Bara takes readers on a thrilling journey filled with discovery, diplomacy, and danger. Newlyweds Peter Cochrane and Karina are on a diplomatic mission to Sandosa, an old ally of Pendax, the latest member of the Union. Their mission quickly turns perilous when Sandosa's government attacks Peter's command, Defiant, and attempts to assassinate them. Peter must use all his resources to protect his wife and their ship. Just as the situation escalates, Defiant is diverted to Skondar, where Peter's former love, Dobrina Kierkopf, and her ship, Impulse II, are under assault by the notorious Prince Arin, known as the Butcher of Carinthia. Although they fend off Arin's attack, the consequences are severe. Peter soon finds himself heading to the enigmatic world of Altos, uncovering unsettling truths about the Union's allies, the Historians of Earth. Each encounter with Arin and his forces leaves Peter and the Union Navy reeling as they pursue this elusive enemy. Ultimately, all paths lead to a climactic showdown where Peter and Arin will clash over the fate of humanity—Union or Empire.
