Earth has been destroyed, the entire solar system turned to dust by a cataclysmic event known as the Fracture. Now, the last survivors of humanity live on vast arkships drifting through the Cluster, doing what they can to survive in a hostile ever-changing environment. Having spent two years in hiding, Wynn is desperate to test out his newly constructed arkship, the Vengeance, and put a stop to the expansionist ambitions of the House of Draig. But Wynn's first skirmish exposes his lack of experience, and his plans for revenge soon lie in ruins. Hunted, outnumbered, and on the brink of extinction, Wynn must find a way to save his family and friends before the House of Kenric is lost forever.
