Description

A scream for help across the hard black, then silence.

That was the start of Chad Forradel's bad day. One minute he's investigating a planet full of bug corpses. The next, he's hitching a ride on an aging heavy lifter, heading toward a pirate-infested system.

When he reaches New Haven, the terraforming platform is gone. All hands lost. And the Ezeroc? They're back—armed, evolved, and flying a stolen Navy corvette.

Somewhere aboard a pirate ship is an esper. Newly awakened. Inexperienced. Dangerous. If the Ezeroc get to them first, they'll forge a monster strong enough to shatter the Empire.

So. Get in. Kill the pirates. Kill the bugs. Save the psychic kid.

If Chad fails, everyone dies.

If he succeeds… well, then he's stuck with a teenager.

What could go wrong?
