The fight is far from over.

Captain JD Ambrose and the battered crew of the Pelican retreat into the shadowy Lucifer system, racing against time to complete essential repairs. But there’s no sanctuary in the void. The relentless Venator, flagship of the Krian hunter-killers, is hot on their trail—determined to finish what it started.

Meanwhile, stranded on the war-torn surface of Luceno, Private Lorna Beck leads a ragtag band of survivors from the shattered Liberty Bell. Outnumbered and outgunned, their mission is clear: reclaim vital Sovereign resources and hold the planet against the encroaching Krian forces—or die trying.

And far beyond the frontlines, in the opulent halls of the Galactic Sovereignty's core worlds, hidden hands pull strings, shifting alliances and manipulating the outcome of a war they view from a safe distance. All the while, the Periphery War is escalating and in the void between stars, the only law that remains is devils and dust.

The Periphery War by bestselling author Tony Healey is a high-stakes military science fiction saga that explores what happens when the war never really ends—and the greatest threat sometimes comes from within . . .
