Publisher Description

Reformed, repackaged, and re-engineered, the Stillness reveal that they never went away. They merely waited. Watching. Planning. And those plans will collide with the rising stars of an empire based on justice and action.

Out in the deep black, Abel Tudor and his crew will fight to prove that command isn't given, it's earned—and their parents chose well, giving them the helm to a warship that could change history with one fateful journey. But they have allies who are proven veterans of a galaxy gone mad with violence. Van, Torina, and the crew aren't retiring—they're reloading, and with the Fafnir and crew come something the Stillness have never faced before.

Van Tudor, the commander of it all. He's older, wiser, and unwavering in his commitment to justice, but now, he's got decades of experience in the trenches with his friends, family, and allies who share his vision for freedom and peace—at any cost.

Along the way, Van, Abel, and their teams will meet old friends, new enemies, and discover that space isn't just crowded—It can be lethal. Especially for the young, no matter who their parents are.
