"The universe continues to spiral out of control. Those remaining discover threats within their own organizations, people they thought they could trust. Friends become enemies even while the Veldon war machine crushes all opposition within its path. The only hope may be with the crew of the Pytheas, though even their small team is not above a little internal conflict. Earth ambassadors strive toward peace with other cultures, convinced they can still unify the rest of the galaxy against what should be a mutual enemy. But no one has been immune to the assault and while some cultures have hidden themselves away, others are subject to threats of their own. Can the humans help their neighbors or will they all fall together?" Amazon Sept 9, 2022
