A nationalist uprising triggers an interstellar wrest for control in an epic novel of embattled worlds by the author of Citadel and the Frontlines series. POW Aden Jansen has lost a decade of his life to both the war and internment when he's recruited by the Alliance. He's to return to Gretia as an undercover Blackguard operative and destroy Odin's Wolves--an insurgency that's setting his home world afire. The mission comes with a full pardon and a chance to reclaim his identity. It also means rejoining his friends and family in space. That's motive enough. If he can succeed--and survive. Dunstan Park is on piracy patrol to track down the spaceborne arm of the uprising. Meanwhile, the rebels' insidious terrorist cells are targets for battle-hardened insurgent hunter Idina Chaudhary and her Palladian commandos. As for Aden's sister, Solveig, she's put herself in the line of fire before, but discovering who's bankrolling Odin's Wolves is as dangerous as it is personal. As Aden works his way back into the confidence of his comrades, the stealth campaign to sow discontent descends into chaos. At risk: Aden's legacy, and the very stability of a galaxy struggling for peace against all odds.
Autorenporträt
Marko Kloos is the author of two military science fiction series: The Palladium Wars, which includes Aftershocks, Ballistic, Citadel, and Descent, and the Frontlines series, which includes, most recently, Centers of Gravity. Born in Germany and raised in and around the city of Münster, Marko was previously a soldier, bookseller, freight dockworker, and corporate IT administrator before deciding that he wasn't cut out for anything except making stuff up for fun and profit. A member of George R. R. Martin's Wild Cards consortium, Marko writes primarily science fiction and fantasy--his first genre loves ever since his youth, when he spent his allowance on German SF pulp serials. He likes bookstores, kind people, October in New England, fountain pens, and wristwatches. Marko resides at Castle Frostbite in New Hampshire with his wife, two children, and roving pack of voracious dachshunds. For more information visit markokloos.com.
