In the boundless cosmos, vendettas cast long, dark shadows.

Hex Thorn, the renowned bounty hunter, is thrust into a mission not of his choosing. The enigmatic entity known as The Sea has placed a deadly ultimatum before him: find and terminate Balo Staymer, the galaxy’s most elusive outlaw, or face his own inevitable end.

Driven by this lethal incentive, Hex and his ragtag team set their sights on Staymer, charting a course through a most dangerous, and corrupt, star system. But the universe never promises a smooth journey.

As their chase takes them from world to world, they become ensnared by a space station from the Second Founding, a forgotten epoch of unparalleled technological marvels. Their pursuit is derailed on Volcadia Prime’s arid landscapes. And with Staymer ever one step ahead, and a relentless sheriff with his own hidden agenda on their trail, the stakes reach dizzying heights.

Thrown into the ancient corridors of the space station, the truth about Staymer unfurls, revealing secrets that have the power to upend the galaxy’s fragile balance.

With the formidable Dominion fleet closing in and demanding both Staymer and the mysteries he holds, Hex is faced with choices that will determine the fate of entire worlds.

SHADOW WATCH: FRONTIER WORLDS propels readers deeper into Hex Thorn’s relentless quest. In a galaxy where trust is scarce and every decision could be fatal, Hex must navigate through treacherous stars and confront the specters of his past. Prepare for an odyssey that will either seal their doom or forge legends in the crucible of the cosmos.
