One chance to win the war. One ship capable of victory.

Captain Scott Moore takes Arcadia to Blackgate, a Shaper fortress prohibiting starships from successfully navigating jumpspace. But there is more to Blackgate than anticipated.

Lost to the ravages of time, a lost human colony struggles for survival. They hold the keys to opening a front against their Shaper oppressors—a fleet of ships, if only they can be repaired.

One problem—Arcadia has a mind of its own, and the ship’s thirst for war must be satiated. Even if it means killing the crew.

Meanwhile, a battle ensues on Kahwin as a Chinese ship misjumps and arrives in the system. Pitted against them, a rag-tag group of professionals must take up arms or the people of Kahwin will once again taste the yolk of slavery. If victorious, there’s a possibility of the team returning back to Earth.

Kol and Zoe visit Earth with vastly different agendas. For Kol, it’s a chance to see a new world for the first time. For Zoe, it’s a chance to explore the only planet in the galaxy that’s resisted the Shapers. Will Kol’s presence on Earth change the course of history? The war to free humanity is set to go into overdrive.
