alternate cover edition for ASIN B06XGNPP8G They tried to destroy our planets. Or way of life. They tried to send us into extinction. But we, the Coalition, fought them and won. That was a decade ago. We had assumed they were beaten for good. We were wrong. They’re known as the Host: a cabal of aliens seeking to dominate our sector of space. And they’re back—with help from a powerful new enemy. Against their wrath, we must stand. We’re outnumbered and unprepared. If we lose, we lose everything. But there is hope. An ancient race of long-dead but technologically advanced aliens called the Navigators have a ship called the Blackstar that could potentially turn the tide. That is if I, Kai Locke, a humble ship racer, can find it and learn how to harness its power in time. If I fail, the Coalition will fall, and the Host will consign us to a distant memory. I refuse to let that happen. I will fight to my last breath for the Coalition’s survival.

The war with the deadly Host continues, only now they have secret alien allies bolstering their efforts. Our former general has defected. Our fleet of battleships took a battering in the first battle. And I’m trapped in another part of the galaxy trying to find my parents and, ultimately, my way home. The situation looks bleak, but I have ancient Navigator technology at my disposal, and I'm mad as hell. Then there's this weird alien information bomb inside my head that I can't access despite it suggesting great power. With new enemies lining up to thwart my plans, I’ll need to muster all the courage and skill if I’m to beat the odds and get back to Coalition space before the Host overwhelm my people and take over the galaxy. If the Host win, the Coalition worlds will burn. Its population will be slaughtered, and there will be no hope for any of us. But I have a ragtag crew of heroes willing to push-back against our foes regardless of the odds. The Coalition will prevail once more, even if I have to die for the cause.
