Teil von Brandon Sandersons epischem Science-Fiction Abenteuer um die junge Pilotin Spensa. Spensa hat sich nicht nur zu einer der besten Sternenjägerinnen ihres Planeten entwickelt – der jungen Pilotin ist es auch gelungen, ihr Volk vor der Ausrottung durch die rätselhaften Krell zu bewahren.

Quarant’anni dopo la scomparsa degli Architetti, il più grande nemico alieno della galassia è tornato, e questa volta i manufatti che hanno preservato interi pianeti dalla distruzione risultano inefficaci. I mondi delle colonie umane rischiano l’estinzione. Alcuni credono che le alleanze con altre specie possano salvarli. Altri insistono che l’umanità debba combattere da sola. Ma nessuno ha né la capacità offensiva né la tecnologia sufficienti per garantire la vittoria. Nel frattempo, la minaccia degli Architetti si fa sempre più vicina.

Ottant’anni prima, la Terra venne distrutta da un nemico alieno. Molti fuggirono mentre altri, in milioni, morirono. L’umanità creò dei nuovi esseri umani potenziandoli come Idris, in modo che potessero comunicare tramite la mente con i loro aggressori. Poi questi “architetti” scomparvero improvvisamente, senza una ragione apparente, e Idris e la sua specie divennero obsoleti. Da quando hanno ricondizionato la sua mente durante la guerra, Idris non è né invecchiato né stanco.

Andrew and Kendra have learned what’s on the other side of the ridge, but it leaves them with more questions than answers. Their colony has turned into a dictatorship under the thumb of its delusional self-appointed leader, the Reverend, making their lives a living nightmare. With a plan in place and help from their new allies, the group plans to sneak out of the colony and make contact with their new neighbors. But nothing in Eden is ever as simple as it seems.

Pell's Station, orbiting the alien world simply called Downbelow, had always managed to remain neutral in the ever escalating conflict between The Company, whose fleets from Earth had colonized space, and its increasingly independent and rebellious colony worlds. But Pell's location - - on the outer edge of Earth's defensive perimeter - makes her the focal point in the titanic battle of colony worlds fighting for independence.

The human powers have been pushed to the brink, battered, and almost destroyed. The virus they have invented and deployed, their sole possibility for victory, seems to be too little, too late. Its usage has only spurred the enemy to quicker action, to finish the war before they have to deal with its effects. But the humans do not know that the Highborn are faced on another front, by a race they know little about but have battled for two centuries.

Three against the stars! A sky pirate armed with superior weapons of his own invention.... First contact with an alien race dangerous enough to threaten the safety of two planets.... The arrival of an unseen dark sun whose attendant marauders aimed at the very end of civilization in this Solar System.... These were the three challenges that tested the skill and minds of the brilliant team of scientist-astronauts Arcot, Wade, and Morey.

Captain Clayton Cross and his crew encountered the Kyra, an advanced race of avian carnivores. They fled this first encounter, but the Kyra beat them back to Earth by almost a century. Earth lost the war in just a few weeks. Our cities burned, and billions died. After we surrendered, the Kyra helped us to rebuild, but on their terms, confining us to city centers and building high walls to keep us in.

Kendra, Andrew, and the other survivors arrive with Lewis Hound’s chosen people at an unfamiliar planet with more questions than answers: how did they get there? Where did all of the advanced technology come from? And is this really Proxima B Centauri? The colony ship breaks into sections and makes an emergency landing amidst a meteor shower, and Lewis Hound, Eden’s enigmatic leader, goes missing.

Con un hogar ya inhabitable y la colonia de Marte abocada a un lento fracaso, ellos son la mejor esperanza de la humanidad.

For three hundred years, humanity’s greatest works of art have been on loan at the Greenwood Museum. It was finally time for them to come home...but the alien curators were disinclined to return them. Force was out of the question. Earth’s government was clear: they were not going to press the issue. So, all we had was guile and hubris to fuel our little intergalactic art heist.

Dean and his friends are trapped on a world they can barely comprehend with enemies on all sides and a growing need to survive. There's more to this place than any of them could have dreamed.
