The best-selling Helmsman Saga continues in this all-new
novel as Wilf Brim begins to pick up the pieces of his life after
a trumped-up court martial deprived him of his beloved
commission in the Imperial Fleet. Around him, the Second
Great war continues apace, even as his beleaguered old Empire
begins to turn the tide of conflict toward ultimate victory over
The League of Dark Stars. But no matter how powerful his enemies, Brim’s friends well know his value to the war effort. Though Galactic Emperor Onrad temporarily lacks the power to restore Brim’s commission in the Imperial Fleet, he recognizes there are missions unique to Brim’s abilities that can as well be done by a civilian as by a uniformed service man—and soon Brim is in the thick of it, albeit somewhat illegally. However, his same powerful enemies quickly realize that even without a uniform, Brim is still every bit a threat to them— perhaps even more so—than he was previously. In a clever turn-about, they mount their most deadly attack ever on his life, placing him unarmed in a situation so outlandish and dangerous that he may rely only on his most basic instincts to merely survive. Will this at last be the end of Wilf Brim and the Helmsman Saga? Read on...
