FORGE A NEW FUTURE.
OR BE CONSUMED BY THE PAST.

Captain Blite and Agent Cormac thought they had stopped the malevolent Mobius AI Straeger. But Straeger's goal to plunge the galaxy into a devastating war is far from defeated. Now, with a twisted p-prador army unleashed, bred from the Spatterjay virus, Straeger sets his plans in motion.

Meanwhile, on the war-struck world of Yossander’s Hold, Blite and Cormac find themselves caught in a maelstrom of betrayal and violence. They must fight their way through the chaos as they seek to repair Blite’s damaged ship, the Coin. But their escape requires resources from the vessel, the Bracken, and aboard that ship, a terrifying transformation is underway . . .

Recognizing the existential threat posed by the p-prador, the Prador Kingdom and the human Polity’s ruling AI form an uneasy alliance. But with Straeger's plans unfolding and reality itself under threat, the galaxy is poised on the brink of destruction. Can Blite and Cormac survive the escalating war and the collapse of time itself?
