War is coming.
Fleet Command seems to know it already, and representatives of the Empire’s intelligence bureau have made it clear that they most certainly know it too. But when it comes to identifying the true threat, special operative Elm Caden has the nauseating feeling that nobody is looking in the right place. Trained to meet the demands of his Empress at all costs, no matter where the evidence might lead, a large part of him has to wonder just how accidental this error actually is. While the Imperial Combine of Earth prepares to move against the Viskr — old enemies now believed to be covertly orchestrating attacks in human territory — Caden looks outwards to the Deep Shadows, the vast areas of unexplored space between the bright, spiral arms of the galaxy. And he can feel true malevolence staring back at him. Acclaimed by readers for its detailed world-building, engaging characters, and fresh, modern feel, this extraordinary debut novel is an immersive and multi-layered story. It slams open the door to a rich, new universe; a universe as vast as it is disturbingly real. SFTD is novel one of five in the Great War of the Shaeld series. |
