The fourth book in an action-packed new SF adventure series.
Sten's luck seems to have deserted him. Having been assigned a tacdivision in the Fringe Worlds, he soon discovers that the Imperial officers are more interested in having fun than honing their fighting skills.
The enemy Tahn couldn't have picked a better time or place to launch their long-planned attack against the Empire. Sten and his men are outgunned and outmanned . . . But Sten isn't going to give up without a fight.
