A cease-fire that has lasted seven years . . . Worlds half-destroyed that have been rebuilt anew . . . Friends and crewmates scattered light-years apart . . . New leaders that would be kings . . . The Jung threat has been renewed, in ways not imagined. It will take a new savior to inspire the masses, and once again lead those willing to fight against oppression. But who will the new savior be?

An entire sector in turmoil . . . Neighbors who appear unconcerned . . . A favor asked of an old friend . . . Sacrifices made for the good of humanity . . . Before they can challenge the Dusahn and prevent them from expanding their empire further, the Karuzari must first gather much-needed resources. But doing so could be more difficult than anticipated.

An old leader born anew . . . A legendary ship at his disposal . . . A desperate crisis born of chaos . . . Needed allies out of unforeseen events . . . Nathan Scott has finally returned to lead the new Karuzari in a rebellion against the Dusahn Empire. But first, he will need to secure a ship to accommodate those who have already joined their cause. The question is; how much of him is now Nathan, and how much is still Connor?

A chance to gain resources . . . A need to prepare a defense . . . A trap about to be sprung . . . An opportunity for justice . . . As his sister faces a critical moment, Captain Scott must chase his friends to regions he has yet to travel. Sometimes, you just have to take risks for those you care about. Sometimes, quite often.

Old allies go dark . . . New worlds join the fight . . . A rescue from an enemy held world . . . A lone operative with a dangerous plan . . . The Karuzari finally have the support of an industrialized system, but they need time to build their forces. Unfortunately, time is the one thing they may not have. Captain Scott now faces a difficult decision: To risk it all on a single roll-of-the-dice, or to turn his back on an old friend, and...

A ship unable to defend itself. A captain determined to revive her. Worlds dependent on them both to survive. An enemy bent on their destruction. With the Aurora unable to fight, the Karuzari Alliance must find a way to not only repair their flagship, but to make the enemy pay dearly. Sometimes, you just have to make do with what you've got.

An enemy lashing out in desperation . . . An alliance poised to expand . . . A new fleet of ships to help them . . . A covert mission to get answers . . . The Dusahn Empire has been contained for the moment. But there is much work to be done in order to keep them from reasserting their dominance over the Pentaurus sector. As much as Captain Scott wants to see the Empire destroyed, he may have no choice but to find a way to coexist with them.

Empires at the brink of war . . . A galactic alliance on the horizon . . . Worlds on the verge of destruction . . . Comrades taking up arms against one another . . . Nathan Scott must use all his cunning to save not only his own world, but the worlds of his friends and his enemies. But to do so, he must make a deal with the devil, and risk everything on a fight no one believes he can win.
