Countless light-years from Earth lies the distant world of Lemuria, one of the few planets where humanity can live unaided, lush forests spreading across the once-barren wastelands, nurtured by the century-old colony. Until the arrival of the Celestial Ascendancy, whose dark forces launched a brutal attack upon the planet and its people, one that slaughtered most of its citizens and left the survivors fighting – and losing – a desperate guerilla war. The arrival of Flight Commander Carter Maxwell and the crew of the Commonwealth Starship Eudoxus changed all of that, and after a desperate battle, the cultists were driven off, albeit at a terrible cost.
The respite was only brief, however, and soon enough the scourge will come again, a renewed attack that could overcome the remaining ramshackle defences, while the reformed planetary government schemes to tighten its grip on power. Forced to assume command following the disappearance of Commander Maxwell, Flight Officer Nick Ryder must use every trick he knows to lead the Lemurians to victory in their most desperate hour, with the freedom of all humanity at stake. Can the crew of Eudoxus win through, or is their blood destined to drain into the burning desert sands…
