From ancient alien civilisations through to modern day London, through to deep space and beyond, nothing and no one is safe. The Bleed wants flesh. It wants to destroy life. It wants to be worshipped.

An unrepentant scoundrel and collector of priceless alien artifacts and treasures - like a tomb raider Lara Croft with issues and a spaceship, or a female Indiana Jones with a looser moral code - the inimitable Skeen makes her final appearance in a thrilling galaxy-hopping adventure that blends science fiction and quest fantasy in the finest Andre Norton tradition, inserting a healthy dose of Terry Pratchett Discworld wackiness for good measure.

Magnus accepts the role of captain as the new ship is launched on its maiden voyage. Dean’s thrilled to take a back seat on the adventure, but things don’t ever work out as planned for our hero.

Things have slowed down for Dean and Mary as they manage the expanding human colonies on Haven, New Spero, and Earth - until they receive a distress call from the Keppe. Magnus and Natalia are in the midst of a three-year exploration mission on the alien vessel, but mysteriously vanish with less than a year left to go. The portals are failing, making the journey more arduous, and when the crew finally think they know what’s happening, they realize they are also stranded.
