A monastery lost for 3000 years. A young Midgaard noble with nothing left to lose. Rick and Freya launch an illegal rescue mission, leaving their young son, Viggo, to rule Planet 3428. The humiliation of Viggo’s easy role is short-lived. Old grudges come boiling back to the surface, forcing him to fight for his birthright. As an old mutiny gains new traction, Viggo finds an uncertain ally beneath the steamy jungles of 3428 – an ally his father has kept secret for his entire life. Their first duty, however, is not to Viggo or his family. With his parents’ mission coming apart at the seams and Viggo imprisoned in an ancient subterranean monastery, the fall of their noble house seems certain. Ultimately, it all comes down to a single life-or-death question… Who is the rightful ruler of 3428? “Asymmetry is the fifth book in A.G. Claymore’s Black Ships, a military sci-fi space opera with a Norse flavor.
